Lyrics completed!
Yes, as the title of this post says – the lyrics are completed. After some hard work I got all of that stuff down and the only thing left is to (eventually) fine-tune some small parts to make it (even more) perfect. Now I’ll make the demos for J so he knows what I have in mind vocal wise, then he adds his own unique touch to everything and makes it so fucken dominating you’ll shit bricks when you hear it. Like he always does. Now the main work of mine is completed, I’ll just go thru everything from time to time to see if anything needs changing (a process I have grown best buddies with as of late, haha) or improving, but this album really feels special on so many levels. You’ll see.
As mentioned, we have absolutely stepped up on all accounts and now the real fun part for me starts when I finally get to hear what the rest of the guys will deliver, how they will glue this masterpiece together and make it all completely mindblowing. Still, tons of work left – but seeing this monster shape up to match my vision is just phenomenal. I have also decided to give you a small, instrumental snippet from one of the tunes in this state, simply becoz I know you want one. Nothing fancy – just domination.
Enjoy, and stay tuned for more updates.
Working on the lyrics…
I am proud to announce that the work with completing the lyrics for our 9th album is really going great, meaning 4 out of 6 tunes are now completed. I still have tons of stuff left to use since I have been writing lyrics for the past month or 2, on and off. The inspiration and the hatred is pissing down and be sure you’ll get your much-needed dose of christian love when the time comes for you to read everything. I’ll start taping everything asap for J so he can start doing vocals whenever he’s got the time to enter A.R.T. Studios in Stockholm for yet another insane effort on his part. Just a couple of more tunes to go before I have wrapped this part up as well. As you can see, things are going very much according to plan.
Don’t forget to read this so you know what to do if you wanna hear this album when it’s completed.
“- How can I get the coming album?”
We have already told you this before, but we’ll do it again in case you have missed out on it:
“Let’s make something very clear by the way. This album will only be sent (digitally as mentioned before – there won’t be any physical copies since we can’t raise that kind of money. And yes, there will be a downloadable booklet and everything so you can make your own CD out of it if you want to) to the people who actually made sure we can record it. The heroes who participated in The TPH Donation Experiment. You can still donate to us if you want it as soon as it’s released. If this one leaks on the Internet, it’s one of you guys who made sure this beast comes alive who’s responsible for it, meaning you are working against us and the whole agenda with this album. Think about that. You can of course do what you want with the album since you are the reason we can make it, but if you really wanna support what we do – prevent the leaking of it. You who want it “legally†– donate any given sum to us and you’ll have it from us upon release date. These are new times…
PayPal: theprojecthate@gmail.com
If you wanna make a donation directly to the bank account, here’s the info you need. Take note, this is the new TPH bank account. The one used in the past is no longer valid:
Lekebergs Sparbank: 8164-6,4 234 547-0
IBAN: SE60 8000 0816 4600 4234 5470
BIC: SWEDSESS
You already helped us to break new ground with the fulfillment of The Experiment, which is just amazing, now treat this recording accordingly when you get it.”
And as far as updating you on the process goes… I am hard at work with the lyrics and just finished up the first track. Still got tons and tons of stuff written down that I will work with and get everything into their right places for the remaining tunes. I also did some major re-arrangements for one tune last night, simply becoz it dawned on me what it was missing. And there it was – perfection. As soon as possible, Jörgen will start to put down his insane work.
I have spoken to Dirk on a more or less daily basis since it was obvious he had to do this album in Tobben’s absence, and he’s really, really stoked to put down the drums for this monster. Can’t wait to hear what he’s cooking up for us all. Ruby’s hard at work with her stuff as well and the stuff she’s sent over so far is absolutely phenomenal. As you can see, things are moving forward in a steady pace, just as planned.
Thanx for the incredible support, Haters, and remember – you are the ones who are making this recording a reality.
It’s been a bit silent here as of late…
But fear not. I am working daily on our next album and it seems like I just put the final touches on the musical side of things for the new material. The past weeks I have been going back and forth within the songs and added stuff that really enhances the stuff at hand. It’s been some insane work, to say the least – but now it seems like I am 99% done with the actual music. Some small things might change as we go along, but nothing major. As mentioned previously, Dirk’s dissecting the songs big time and want you to know that he really loves the tunes. That says quite a bit. He’ll record his drums on and off from now on forward until he’s done. There is really no rush since I am working with the lyrics (would guess I have some 50% down as of now) and we have all the vocals and guest parts to record as well. We will definitely take our sweet time with this monster, simply becoz we have no deadlines. I always planned this one to be finished in 2012, and that’s what we are aiming for. As it looks, it really should be no problem.
I mentioned I got a phonecall a few weeks ago from a childhood hero of mine who’s going to guest on this next album. I believe I forgot to tell you how it is, no?
Lasse Johansson from Candlemass.
I am truly honored to get a call from this hero, letting me know he definitely wants to guest on the material. I spoke to him a few days ago and I had but one demand – that he puts down his solos with the exact guitar he used for the classic album “Nightfall”. And that he will, haha… It’s all coming together, as you can see. Thank you, Lasse.
Besides that, Ruby’s been sending over more vocal lines the past weeks, and she is absolutely blowing me right the fuck away again. I can’t wait to hear this recorded for real.
As you can see, things are going extremely well and we are all very pumped to get this album completed and delivered to you who donated. Thanx for the support. We’ll talk soon again.
Brand new interview online!
While we are working our asses off on the new album I managed to squeeze in a quite lengthy interview with the friends over at Metal Rules. I suggest you click this link to get there since it covers alot of stuff that is currently happening, and you might find some of that shit interesting. Thanx to Anders Sandvall for the thorough support over the years. Now I go back to work on the coming masterpiece. More news will come as soon as I feel like sharing them.
