New album

We’re hard at work writing a new album that will be recorded and released this year. More info on that plus a bunch of exciting shows will be posted soon.

Writing songs

We’re in the process of writing material for a new album to be recording in early 2012.

UK

We would like to thank the people involved in our UK shows this past weekend. Pete & Carolyn of Pombagira, Tanya and Matt in Nottingham, Matt in London, Cristiane & Adam. Thanks for making our very first UK dates memorable.

First show in 2011

We’re getting ready to play our first show in almost 7 months. We’ll play the April Aprilfest at Truckstop Alaska in Gothenburg on April 2:nd. Other bands playing are Stench, Satanarchy, Death Hammer and Nominon.

First utterance

The first show as a duo is now behind us and it was a good one. Photos and videos will soon be posted.
Tomorrow it’s off to Tilburg, Netherlands for a show on Saturday at the Incubate Festival.

LP and new site

		We are very proud to present the gatefold LP released by Denovali records. The LP features a heavyweight gatefold covers with a special spot varnish effect. 180 pieces on clear vinyl with a black screenprint on side D and 320 pieces on black vinyl with a black screenprint on side D. We also offer packages consisting of a 2×12” + a sweet handscreened American Apparell tshirt The end result looks absolutely amazing and you can get it at the Denovali site. Thank you for a job well done guys! We are also releasing the beta of our new site. Some work is still to be done but we will finish it in the near future. Hopefully this blog will be updated on a more regular basis to let you know what we are up to.

Last eerie touches

We returned to the lovely Gröndal studio for a kind of short day or recording the lasr finishing touch of some eerie piano and Hammond organ.

First Johan laid down some piano parts. Then it was time for some nice Hammond organ thru a nice old Leslie amp/cab.

The mixing is more or less done as well so the plan is to master the album on Wednesday (17:th of June) at Tonteknik with Magnus Lindberg (Cult of Luna) behind the knobs.

Version Studio Day 3

Day 3 at Version was spent recording all of the vocals for the album. And yes, there is alot more vocals than on recent Switchblade recordings and yes, Anders do all of the vocals this time around. And Anders really stepped up and delivered unearthly vocals if you ask me. So after 2 x 3 days of recording, the album is done except for some Hammond and piano stuff that will be recorded at Gröndal just prior to mixing session. No date has been set yet but it should hopefully happen sometime in the next few weeks. Until then..

Version Studio Day 2

All of day two at Version was spent recording guitar overdubs for all three tracks of the album. Guitars (and the rest as well) is sound huge to be honest.

Well, not that much else to report since it all about guitar right now. Since we don’t have the amazing selection of mics or pre-amps here at Version compared to Gröndal, Daniel brought his nice API pre-amp and Fat Head ribbon mic.  So one amp/cab was mic’ed with the Fat Head and a Revox 3500 and the other amp/cab was mic’ed using a Revox 3500 and a Sennheiser MD421. No expensive stuff but great sounding none the less.
