Time for another song writing update… And what about the donations?

Over the last weeks I have been working my ass off on this 6th track (out of 7 planned) for the next album that you guys, the Haters, obviously will make a reality thanx to your donations to The TPH Donation Experiment.

Today I managed to put down the first session of bass for this tune (the guitars still need to be checked closely, and I also have to do all of the remaining electronic stuff and orchestras before it’s “finished”), but we are so getting there, and it feels fucken killer, to say the least. I even managed to record a short clip for ya of me recording bass for a part that is not a 100% completed just yet, but I thought it’d be nice for you to hear something of what’s to come eventually. Click this link to get there. I will try to make more of these videos as I move forward with the composing. I’m sure some of you appreciates it anyways, so…

It looks like we are moving towards the goal, people, which is just phenomenal on all accounts. You guys truly are amazing.

That’s it for now. Spread the word about The Experiment. You have done a tremendous job at it so far.

Until next time…

And we move forward yet again…

After spending yesterday going thru the recorded guitars and doing some fix-ups, all the Xiphos work is now done for the third track. And yeah, so is the bass. I’ll check the mentioned low-end closer for eventual shit to be replayed after I am done with the orchestral arrangements which are about halfway completed. Some of the guitars for this one were quite a bitch to nail actually, but it turned out great in the end after some frustrating sessions and insane downstroke picking de luxe. So, what we have here now is (soon) 3 completed tunes for our next album. And already we have passed 30 minutes of material, with just fucken 3 songs. Yes, I am not making it easy on myself so do not expect to hear this new album on the radio anytime soon, ok? Anyways, the process goes on and as soon as the orchestral bits are arranged for this one I am moving on to the fourth one. I can’t believe it’s gone this fast to compose for album 8 – it’s just beautiful when it happens, as mentioned before.

Stay tuned for continuous updates on everything, and once again – BUY THE DAMN SHIRT WE JUST PRINTED!

Short video of Tobben rehearsing.

Here is a new video of Tobben playing drums in the rehearsal room. This will at least give you a little hint of what’s to come. Actually, it won’t becoz there’s no bass, no orchestras and the drumsound is straight from the rehearsal room. Also, the guitars aren’t 100% synched becoz video editing is a bitch. They are good enough though. Either way – you shall worship this. And you shouldn’t mind the quite sucky sound quality.

CLICK ME FOR EXCELLENCE!

Enjoy.

Quite impressive.

Found this on YouTube and thought we’d share it. Good work by whoever’s playing.

Click me.

Last off, wanna design a shirt for us? Look at the post below.

Some news.

Yes, the long-awaited announcement will come as soon as possible. We are as anxious as you guys are to reveal everything. In the meantime everything is falling into place and drummer Tobben‘s got some words to share with ya:

“Just talked to Mats of Big Balls Recordings and finally we have a date when we start recording the drums for the new album! Friday 24th of September it is! I’ll do as much as I can during that weekend and then we have the evenings during the following week to finish everything. Then it will take some more days before Mats have sorted everything with the files so he can send them to K.

Can’t wait to work with this material in the studio!”
