Well, hello. Time for that time when we take the time to update this timely recording blog … time. Album 2 completion has increased to 11%. Most of the drum tracks are done with only the troublesome stragglers (punk-folk band name?) left to deal with. Drums are always the lengthiest part of album recording (save perhaps mixing/mastering), so our clip should steadily increase as we move deeper in the Album 2 depths.
In related recording news, to pacify your thirst for our brand of indie pop rock until the release of Album 2, we have decided to record a series of acoustic EP’s. The first installment is underway and includes songs from Head Voices, Album Two, and other unreleased material (possibly album 3 or album 4 songs). It looks something like this:
1. Eye to Eye — Album 2
2. Jem vs the Volcano — Album 2
3. i’m too old to fear the ghosts — Head Voices
4. G.F.Y. (300 Hands) — previously unreleased
5. Hello, Misunderstanding — previously unreleased
6. Honey (I Think you Know) – thorazine remix — Head Voices
We hope to have that out to you as soon as possible, with the idea of releasing several installments this year. Talks of all kinds of EP projects have been going on, everything from a experimental music to a comedy album. Should be a very productive rest of ’10 for us.
Here’s Ryan laying down tracks for the acoustic album from the point of view of the acoustic bass. —>
