THAT'S RIGHT A NEW POST!!! ...about everything.

I've been kinda lazy with this, so hopefully it'll be more updated...:)

I get the artwork for "We Miss The Cold War" tomorrow. I'm excited. Mark cut his hand, so it took him longer than expected.

I think I finally have an image for Waves of Mercury "The Letters"
I hope so, because we finally finished the recordings and the mix has one tweek and it's good to go!

I have no idea why "The Great Darkness" isn't up, we've had art for it forever and...well, if I can get it up soon, you'll know.

TFSA #3 "That's the Ticket" is almost done. I have three songs to sing, but I got hit with a nasty sore throat, so it's delaying that. I have the idea and the models for the cover ...hehehe.

In the mean time, the first two song single for TFSA is underway and drums and some guitar have been recorded already.
With the singles, we'll record two songs, and have fairly simple artwork and put them up on bandcamp as soon as both songs are done. Once we get five singles, then it's be put on as a full cd, but until then, just digital format.

Jeff and I have decided that the first "Blood of the Earth" cd will be a four song cd and all the drums are recorded so far. Greg has been asked to play fretless bass, and Jeff and I will both be handling vocals.

There might be something else, but I'll "Keep it Secret, Keep it Safe"

HUH?

Nobody reads this...do you?

TFSA 2 is done recording wise and we need art.

TFSA 3 is about 70% done.

TFSA 2...Hhmmmm?

So today we recorded bass for the 5th song and then the new song, which was only an idea(around the time we wrote the 2nd or 3rd), was completed.
We didn't f*ck anything else up equipment wise tonight.

The drums recorded direct are pretty good, but I'll have to compare later.

The newest song has a crazy weird part that I think...oh, um, who...BEN will love!

until next week...?

THE BIG UPDATE!

The Fairly Secret Army - "We miss the cold war" - four songs finished, one song with drums and guitars...and one partial idea of a song.

Waves of Mercury - "The Great Darkness" - just need to make copies and post on bandcamp.

Waves of Mercury - "The Letters" - two songs need vocals, one needs lyrics and then a final mix.

Post-Black Metal emo shoegazer project #1 - this is with Jeff Philips, we have two songs mostly arranged and he's coming up with ideas all the time. We'll probably both sing one this project.

Post-Black Metal emo shoegazer project #2 - I have one song finished, except for how I want the bridge section. I'm playing guitar, bass and drums on this one...yep, that's right, GUITAR! I think Cory might do vocals, but I'll have to hear first if he does them like I want.


Tragedy struck last week in the form of a recorder that doesn't have a line out that works, a sound card that records louder on the left side and to top it all off, none of it needed to happen, I was just too anal about extra noise while recording bass! You wouldn't have even heard the minimal noise, because it was practically non-existent!

So an update of the recording process will be happening soon, but who knows when?

until my next life...?

The Letters

I added reverb to all the drums and added some vocal harmonies to a couple of songs yesterday.

I have to do vocals to two songs, maybe re-record the drums on "December" and then do a final check on the mixes.

...and then it's done!

Then we move onto the artwork, making copies and putting it on bandcamp.com



until monday...?

May 16th? Will TFSA march again?

Greg will be back from Spain on Sunday...but I doubt he'll want to play on Monday.

After a grueling 3 week vacation, he'll have to unpack...oh the horror!

Anyway, I'm excited about getting started again. I slacked off during the break. I should have been mixing and singing more, but I didn't ...I suck.

until next, time?

TFSA takes a break.

Greg is in Spain until May 15th, so I will possibly do a song or two on my own...but, that could be lame.

Accckkk!


Hmmm?


until May....?
