Yes, we are still alive
Hey guys. Hey guys guys guys.
So we haven’t posted any updates or anything in, like, a while, so I thought I’d better do that. The album is almost finished; we’ve finished several other songs besides the ones available on the PureVolume page, and we’ve got all the music finished for several others (I just need to record the vocals sometime when nobody else is in the house). As well, it’s looking like we won’t be able to release the whole album through PureVolume, since the maximum file size for the site is 8 MB and it’s looking like one or two of the songs are going to be bigger than that (yeah, they’re REALLY long). But never fear, Mar Smauel will come up with some clever computery thing that lets you download the whole thing directly from the band’s main site.
It’s probably also worth noting that Nevik’s done more work on the songs lately; I remixed “Abacus” so there’s his acoustic guitar in the bridge (very symbolic) and he wrote most of the music for another song which we did without Smauel knowing, heh heh heh. Anyhow, the album should be released sometime this month, mostly likely towards the end of it. The whole thing will be available for free download from the main site as I mentioned, and then the physical CD (with album art and lyrics ‘n sturff) will probably cost around $5 or $10, just to cover the cost of production.

I reserve my copy now. No groupie is worth their salt if they do not reserve a copy ahead of time.
Hooray for acoustic guitars! That’s my favourite instrument, hands down. Go Nevik!
Can’t wait to hear it all, guys. Rock on!

My favourite instrument is the bagpipes, but I unfortunately can’t play those. Yet.

That’s my second favourite. Oh, actually, the piano falls somewhere in the top three too, but I’m unsure of the order. So let’s just say those are my top three favs, in no particular order.

I like the pipe organ better than the piano.
