STUDIO UPDATE

Well, we didn't update our progress every day as promised but here's a quick one. During tuesday and wednesday we recorded all drums and bass tracks on Dark days are coming, Last sun, Whose Splendor Hath Shattered Worlds and Eclipse. Thursday Ruu worked a 13h shift so it was a day off from the studio. Yesterday me and Ruu started with the guitartracks and a drymix of Dark days are coming and today we'll continue with guitartracks for Last sun and Whose Splendor Hath Shattered Worlds and continue mixing. It's a real trail mixing the song cos neither me or Ruu has any experience of it, but we're getting there.

Time to make some coffee and get going. It's going to be a long day.

MONDAY

We only got about four hours in the studio today, but we made some progress. We have finetuned the sound of the drums and the rythm guitar and the last "thrash-recording" made everyones lips0 form a little well pleased smile. I really think we're on to something here. Tomorrow we're on for real.

IT'S ON

Tomorrow after work we'll beging the recording sessions. It's thrilling and exciting and a little scary. We'll post updates every day while in the studio and hopefully we'll get some sounds and images from the recording. 

DARK DAYS ARE COMING

THE EP

Some of the bits and pieces of the EP are coming along nicely. We have bought the records (Red lightscribe) we have decided on the songs, we have almost gotten time in the studio.. Not confirmed yet tough. But it looks like we're on to record our EP next week or the week after that. This weekend I'm going to focus on the graphics for the disc, the cover and the sleeve. We can reveal that the EP will be delivered in a slimcase with a 2 page sleeve 1+3.

Lillan 6/2 2009

This time we nailed it! I for one think it went great, it felt great. It´s the second time for us performing at Lillan in Luleå, which is a wounderful place to play at, so we felt more at home and that led to a greater precence on stage. The only thing that got f***ed up was the images played with the projector failed after the first song and some soundbugs, but other then that we can't complain. We got a great response from the audience and the other bands. People even asked if we had records to sell after the show. Some of the other bands in the contest were talking about us with their friend in very positive terms. It really feels like our music is appreciated. We are looking forward to the next gig.

A slighter misshap on the way home

Psycked over the succes we embarged on our journey back to Piteå. Talking about how great the gig went, making jokes and laughing, we missed a turn-off. Oblivious of our miss we kept driving for several miles until we suddenly did´nt recognice the surroundings anymore. We had obviously been driving towards Boden instead of Piteå. Well well....shit happens. We all laught and backtracked back to Luleå and went onwards towards to Piteå :)

THE ARTICLE

The article about us for the local newspaper PT will be published tomorrow. We got a sneak preview of it and even if we've already read it we're eager of anticipation to see the thing in print.

As we thought they pronounced our age difference since we have an effective age difference of 25 years. But this was expected, and I guess it’s one of our greatest strengths as a band. The article then mostly treats our music and how we relate to it. I for one think it’s a fair article.

We’ll post the article in pdf form on the main website.

Tomorrow me and MackE will drive round town and post posters to promote our search for a singer. The posters will be best noted the same day as the article is published so we don't have much time. This is what the new posters look like:

Yeah, rewrote an old song called “He kept human limbs in the trunk” today. I’m actually amazed how it changed, evolved and finally turned out during the procedure. It went from a stoner influenced, dust ridden, riff based murder rock song to a full fledged cosmic, cold and mind bending, hate song. Yeap…  I don’t know what the hell we should call it now. It’s definitely not about a creepy murder guy and his car anymore which was the first thought. So the story changes… We’ll keep you updated.
