the last two days of recording! listening to mixes, everything's sounding great. figuring out any last pieces. No Shave November has offically started, don't worry there will be updates. bv.
we've entered the home stretch now. our new record, Knowledge Machine gets sent off for duplication in twenty days. spending this week finishing up the last little bits of recording, finishing up mixing and mastering. stressed out beards are on and already in full. no shaving until November 17... see you then.
well, we’re in a very interesting position/time right now. all 17 songs we started recording at Hounds Hollow in April (it seems so long ago…) have taken shape into full-fledged songs. final mixes are being listened to everyday, tweaking something here or there. but for the most part, we all can really hear where each ...
We are totally thrilled to be opening for the amazing Dangerbird Records bands Bad Veins and Division Day on the Boston stop of their tour. The show will be at O'Brien's in Allston, and we HIGHLY recommend getting tix now before they sell out. This is a great opportunity to see these bands in a small ...
That pretty much summed up our week, AND it is the tagline for the very awesome TeaPartyBoston. You should go visit their site immediately for some great photography, news about town and articles like "How to Deal with Tofailure, And Other Life Lessons." We had the pleasure of talking with two of the lovely ladies ...
In case you missed it last week, there's a sneak peek track from Knowledge Machine available over at Ryan's Smashing Life - download away!!
Sooo.....how is it that I missed this phenom?!?! Three wolves are better than one, that's for sure. And the wolf is the Static of the Gods power animal when we're on the road. In fact we have three ceramic wolves that we bought in New Mexico glued to the dashboard of Big Blue to keep ...
we're hard at work, finishing up the last little bit of recording. mike's mixing everything right now, things are sounding great so far. I'm working on editing some recently shot film, I hope to have some videos up for you soon. sorry, not very interesting... in other news, i really, really, really can't wait to ...
i've been fighting what I thought was just a pulled back muscle for a few weeks now. but normal life, hauling gear, playing shows and whatnot have gotten the best of me. a good ol' thoracic strain coupled with a nice trapezius strain, I'm stuck laying down for days on end. after two emergency ...
we're getting a dear old friend back today!! more to come... (ssshhh, i heard a rough first mix of one song, "talk you down" for the new record... very pleased)
I apologize for not updating as much as we should. we're all working really hard trying to get these songs to sound the best we can, sometimes we forget to take pictures/video and post updates. I promise we'll be better about it going forward... we've had an interesting couple of weeks. some new gear, mixed with ...
As you might know, for some reason I really love wearing a dress when we play. Not sure if it comes from childhood when wearing anything besides jeans meant it was a special occassion - actually, come to think of it, I'm still kind of like that! So here's my great new handmade dress that ...
so we're taking a small little break from recording to rehearse for this show on may 30. we've got some surprises in store for everyone...
got up early this morning to work on some guitar and bass parts. we've decided to focus on 3 to 4 song batches, get everything recorded for those songs then move to the next batch. I've almost got my parts done, a few more days of work. jen's gonna work on her parts the next ...
In light of last nights Celtics loss, Loki wanted to show his support and help to team with game 7. I think what Loki is trying to say is: "More Scal! More Scal!!!"
We spent the better part of Saturday on Amp patrol. We dropped off the AC30 at Boston Guitar Works to get it looked at and to get a new reverb tank installed. They're the place to go if you need a boutique amp and have some amazing gear. After spending a some time perusing and ...
I walked out to the van this morning to find this: It reminds me of a note that someone left on my van a few years - in that case, someone was complaining that the van was too big, took up too much space, and shouldn't be allowed on the street. My reaction on both occasions ...
So we finally got around to taking a look at the reverb tank in the AC30 (that's the thing that make's all the cool, dreamy sounds). Sure enough, the thing is all sorts of broke. There is supposed to be 3 springs stretched from one end of the tank to the other, but none (which is ...
Shhh, don't tell anyone, but today is someones birthday. To celebrate we eat at a fantastic new restaurant called "Hungry Mother" in Cambridge, Ma. And no, this photo is not supposed to imply that it was my birthday, this happens to be the only one that came out clear enough to post; sorry, you get to ...
Spent a good part of the day today dealing with all those things that often get pushed under the rug. Had to pay a visit to my local insurance agent to pay a few months of late gear insurance (oops). But have no fear, as of today, all our gear is covered and protected again. Now ...
We started officially recording guitar today. For the last couple of days, we've been trying to smack some sense into AC30, and it finally listened. Ben got his guitars done for "Talk you down", although we still have some double up some parts with the Big Muff. The AC30 is still periodically making some unsettling rattling ...
setting up the new website, testing iPhone posts at the moment...
I know I'm just a drummer, but something just doesn't look right here.
