This is probably my last post here, since I think this blog thingie is a complete waste of time... If I change my mind you'll notice it, if not ... Who cares... Join us at our community at our official web site instead, and let's mingle there... Cheers!

I'm also waiting...

The one who wait for something good, always wait too long ...

Other thingies...

Maybe some of you are interested in what other things I use? Well, this head to name just one. Still interested in what other gear I use, or have? Let me know, and I'll post it here... Cheers!

Guitar of the day!

Caparison, Horus!

Am a little curious about this brand of guitar, and this model... This was the one I was thinking of getting before I choosed the ESP brand. But I am still curious about this one... So, why didn't I get one of these, well... As far as I know they are only sold by one shop in all of Sweden, and it seemed that they ordered them from Japan when they got a buyer? That's not something I wanted to wait on... Does anyone know if this is correct, or not?

Anyway, I would love to try one of these babies out, but buy one, not sure... If any one wanna get me one, be my guest... I'm a poor guitarist that can't even afford new strings... ;)

Cheers!

Guitar of the day!

Ok, let's be serious for a while. The guitar here today is probably the only signature guitar I really want to own. It's just the way I want it, and one day I'll get one of these babies...

Guitar of the day!

Hm, that's a bass ...
But who gives a flying fuck!?

Oh, which one would you pick?

...

Gaki No Tsukai - Batsu Games!

After more than seven hours of, first the police station batsu game dvd and then the hospital batsu game dvd, my face hurt from all the laughing... But it was needed... In a day or two I'll sit down with the first Onsen batsu game and the reporter batsu game dvd, and later on the new hotel batsu game dvd, the hotel game dvd is around six hours long with all the extra material, woot!!! Yay!!!

But for now... お休み

Yesterday I finally go the guitar setup correctly, after months of playing with a really high string action, and a bent neck (not good)... Now it feels like I have a brand new guitar, even if it's more than 15 years old... Yay!!! Maybe that's the good thing about it, you know what you get with that kind of guitar, if it hasn't let you down yet, it probably wont in the long run either...

In the Forest

Here's an old clip of me playing a instrumental song "In The Forest", influensed by lots of things, but mostly som great Irish Folk Music... Enjoy!

What the heck...

We are currently working on new songs for the second album, and I have this intro solo in one of the songs, it's not hard in anyway. But I can't for the life of me get it to work while we rehearse this song... At home, no problem at all, I have even set the speed for the song up to 130 or 140 percent, and I can kick it off without a glitch or anything... But when all of us are at the rehearsal room, it's like there's this really hot chick that clinges to my guitar, and won't let go, and make me fuck everything up...

WHAT THE FUCK!!!

Finished!

The album layout is finished, and a promo package has been set together from our photo session with Mattias, and from the art work from Jean Pascal Fournier. Everything will be sent out as soon as we have checked the text one more time (you can never check enough times, and there's usually some errors slipping by anyway, but I hope we have killed em all)...

Hero >>

Now I deserve a quiet night, with a few horror movies, and some beer... And will go for Norweigan horror tonight, Skjult, Fritt Vilt I o II, Rovdyr, etc; YAY!!!

So until next time... Cheers!

Alrajt...

Now all prework for the album layout is done, now I'm just waiting for the final high resolution images for the artwork, and some texts, and I will have everything to get started with the final layout.

The album is mixed, mastered, and sent to our record label in USA.

Release date isn't announced yet, but we have big hopes for a European release in march this year.

Feeling down...

This aint good, I'm feeling down, depressed, and fucked up!

Insomnia

... or something. Can't fucking sleep, and when I finally do it's from exhaustion. I can only lie on my back, can't fricking move, and if I fall asleep I wake up almost instantly again. This is a kind of hell, fuck it!

Tonight the final mix is being done by Thord at the Seventh Gate Studio. This means that we are done, and now we only have the photo session and layout to be done, besides the mastering, and this will luckely be done very fast.

Otherwise my life have been a bit slow, still can't do much since I had surgery, and my guitar playing is taking a few hits because of that. I can't sit for long, and I feel things are getting harder to play, but I know it will come back fast once I'm 100% healed. It's just boring at the moment...

Oh, and I need a normal day job, anyone got anything for me? Preferably something as a graphical designer...

Cheers!

Aaaarrrrggghhhhhh!

Someone told me to update more often, so here we go... Hm, *scratches head*, och a bug!!! Oops, sorry... The mixing is just about done for the album, and we've gotten feedback from our record company, and now the final process will be done, after one final listening session... The Mastering! Yay! The artwork is also ready, and we'll soon have the long awaited photo session, and then the layout will be worked out, which won't take very long...

That's it for today, cheers!

Surgery, and some updates...

I know, it has been quiet here for some time, again. But this time I have a good reason... I had surgery about two weeks ago, and hasn't been able to sit by the comp much at all...

Besides that not much has happened, well except that most, if not all, the mixing are done for the upcomming album now, and hopefully the mastering will go smooth...

Watch our myspace page for a new song sometime in the near future...

/Cheers

...

Jenny found some drum sticks, and I got hurt. As if anything else was expected. That's why I post this particular picture of her here... Mohaha.... Well, I love you anyway... ;)

Then she put down some vocals for the upcoming album. All in all it was a great day...

All the vocals are now done for the album, except the backing vocals. And some reparation work that we will do on some of the songs, things we didn't notice right away. But the end is very near now... And it feels great... :)

Cheers!
