Infringed: Infringed was born to Modesto, California's metal scene during the spring season of 2002. After Scarecrow's former band, Life Ache, fell through, the two guitarists were in search of a more complete band. With the introduction of Josh Katen and Adrian Perez into the band, they had then changed names from Life Ache to Infringed. Kyle Nauslar had been with Life Ache since December of 2001, but he was not an active member up until a month or so before Infringed was born. With such a variety of influences in the band, it has been difficult to assign an accurate genre to the music that is projected from this group. It's mostly a mix of grunge rock and thrash metal with a bit of melodic heavy metal intertwined. Scarecrow plays rhythm guitar and chord organ for this band. However, the band went its seperate ways in May of 2003.
Pariah: With the collaboration of Jeremiah and Zechariah Stoker, the industrial duo of Pariah was born. These two brothers have set out to recreate the sound of Ministry's mind-twisting music that they projected in the late 80s with their album "The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste." Refusing to ever use vocals, Pariah is focusing on strictly samples to carry out messages within their unique music. For this band, Scarecrow plays guitar, bass, and drums.
Goatse Fusion: This band was formed as a joke, mocking the horrible sound of 80's pop and gothic music. With their demo of Cream Of Pete, there was five people involved in the band, but there's really only three solid members: Mike Howells, Brian Forest, and Scarecrow. For this band, Scarecrow is lead vocals.
Strokanoff: This is probably Scarecrow's most deranged side project of all. It's not just music. The website of Strokanoff includes mp3s, poems, short stories, and various episodes that come in the form of comics, special day cards, and transcribed fights between various characters of the Strokanoff website. It's meant to be purely crass comedy. However, Scarecrow recently quit Strokanoff to focus on more important things.
