Geoff Saavedra is the only member of Titanosaur and thus is responsible for vocals, guitars, bass, and drum programmings. Before Titanosaur apppeared in the universe of Stoner Punk and Metal, Saavedra used to play with The Raygun Girls but unfortunately had to drop out due to health reasons. Now he has released his solo project's third album "Messages" which deals with the experience of being autistic.


The lyric video for "Scream for Vengeance" shows some visual similarities to Bristol's Froglord. Music-wise Titanosaur is oriented slightly different. Freely, he merges features from raw Hard Rock with Heavy Metal, Heavy Blues Rock and Punk. The result is a tough sound that best fits the terms Stoner Metal or Stoner Punk. "Messages" is a cohesive collection of rough Metal songs with a sweet sonorous Blues sound and a savage Punk attitude.


"Messages" contains all features of liberty a solo artist can have. Saavedra tells his own stories on his own arrangements and every instrument, every effect and every part sounds the way it should according to the artist. The narrative itself is stunning due to the rough vocals that beautifully throne upon the heavy and stoned soundscape.
Imagine Lemmy Kilmister joining Carnivore for a Punk Rock jam session after two big hits from the bong and you might get a similar sound to Titanosaur's "Messages". This is a 70-minute work ideal for long journeys and Malt Whiskey.
