We are still waiting for J to be able to nail those 2 last songs with his monstrous roars. This means we are in the same situation as some weeks ago. You know K and J’s been busy doing Torture Division gigs but we are doing what we can do squeeze those 2 songs in asap, believe us. Just hang in there. We are working on some small TPH related stuff in the meantime and you will all find out what it’s about as we go along. Stay detuned.
We are definitely getting closer to finalizing this masterpiece since J only got 2 more songs to do vocals for as he nailed the 5th one a few days ago. We hope he’ll be able to do one of them this coming week and the last one after we have played the House Of Metal festival with Torture Division which happens next weekend.
K has already started to make notes about all the corrections and small details that need fixing as soon as all the vocals are in place. Dan Swanö will love him for that, we’re sure, haha… But that’s the fun part, making everything come to life as we have envisioned it and with Dan’s magic it even exceeds our expectations.
So, now you know – we are getting nearer completion.
We have told you most of this over at our forums (we can’t stress it enough – you really should keep an eye on that place since we are there on a daily basis with updates) but here goes:
Mr. Swanö started to mix the album now but this doesn’t mean everything is completed just yet. J still got some 3 tunes to do vocals for before we can start seeing the full picture of this masterpiece and start to get into details that need being sorted eventually; like levels on different stuff and whatnot. But we are getting the sound for it now since Dan’s lined up some insanely nice mix to listen to, even if half of is still missing J’s vocals that is. J’s having some problems finding the time needed for doing the last three songs, some of it due to us in Torture Division having some gigs coming up, and he also plays some shows with Krux every now and then, but mostly it’s hard to squeeze in some vocal sessions with kids and everything taking up daily hours (that is why J actually does his stuff in the middle of the night haha). J will start finishing up his remaining vocals as soon as possible, just so you know. But we are getting there, people. Oh yes, we are getting there with completing the finest 60+ minute album we have ever done. It will be worth the wait, that’s a promise.
We have also recorded quite a lot of videos during the recording that we will try to find time to put together for some nice teasers when we can. Those fucken things also take time to complete so bare with us – the album is priority one for natural reasons.
Listening to what Dan has created soundwise is pure bliss considering we have been absorbing ok-sounding demos for so long… This is something else, that’s for sure. We know what we are creating and a good advice when you finally get to hear this bastard Son of Satan is: invest in a pair of expensive headphones coz there is so much stuff you will never notice otherwise… But more of that later on…
Last off: the title for the album’s been set for quite some time, but we will naturally not reveal it just yet, and recently we decided on all the song titles which feels great. It’s safe to say we are not straying away from our concept, just so you know…
Jo finished up all her vocals yesterday and she’s done a terrific job. She definitely pulled off some unexpected things that we think you will enjoy and be surprised by when you hear it. Who knew she had it in her, the little one, haha… J’s also nailed 3 tunes so far, which means he’s still got 4 more songs to do asap. His vocals are put on hold this week though since he has some gigs with Krux to take care of. He should be back on track by next week though. We are still waiting for some guest parts to drop in as well. Things are shaping up to become a complete monster when it comes to this album…
If you wanna see some photos from Jo’s vocal sessions, go here and drool, you perv. We will post some videos and teasers as soon as we get around to creating those. That shit takes time and if there’s anything we don’t have shitloads of it is, yes – you guessed it, time. We are working on it though. In the meantime we can inform you that the shirts and hoodies are about to be packed and delivered in case you ordered one. Stand by yer mailbox now, you hear? We’ll be back shortly with more information about the recording process.
Check this topic for all the information and a bunch of photos:
On another note, J is in the studio as we type this, doing his work for the album. Due to some goddamned flu and shit it’s been a little delayed but he’s getting his work done one tune at the time (like if there’s any other way to do shit, duh). We will post some videos and whatnot as we go along. Just watch us bitches.
Here’s a shot of Jo in action of some kind:
