Lyrics | 2010-06-16

Now it's time to work on the lyrics! This is, of course, a much slower process. But it shouldn't take too long, as I intend to have the album out before October. Hopefully much earlier, though :)

[x] The Black Rite
[x] Neurovirus
[x] Shattered Cities
[x] Demon In the Circuitry
[x] Frozen Machine
[x] Lost
[x] Unveiling the Future
[x] The Apocalypse
[ ] Grains of Reality

And another one for the EP tracks:

[ ] Charcoal Earth
[ ] Chaos Dimension
[ ] Pyre of Souls
[ ] Wire Synapse

Well, finished :D | 2010-06-09

Why wait until tomorrow when you can do it today...

Start: 17:34
Finished: 22:24

4 hours and 50 minutes to record all the bass guitars for the new album, plus bounce the tracks... not bad ;)

Now it's time to start working on the vocals, and doing some initial test mixes.

Progress with bass, preparing for vocals | 2010-06-09

Okay, I'm currently recording the bass tracks for the songs, and so far three songs have been finished. Once the bass is finished, I will also bounce the guitar and bass tracks, so that the song is ready for vocal recording and subsequent mixing. Each song will once again be listed below and I will check them once they're finished.

As for vocals, I still don't have much in the way of lyrics - only one sketch of full lyrics for The Black Rite, and some lines here and there for the others. Matti has some lyrics for a few songs, so there's still a few more to finish. Once all the bass tracks are recorded and the songs prepared, I will start to concentrate on the lyrics. The idea is forming quite well for the theme of the album, but more on that later... meanwhile:

Bass Recording | 2010-06-08

Phew, all guitars have now been recorded! 12 songs, 4 rhythm guitar tracks each, and 2 or 4 lead guitar tracks each. That's was a lot of work :P Now it's time to start recording bass, which is always fun :)

Maybe at some point I'll post some of those guitar recording videos, probably after some edits, because there's one video for almost every riff and lead :P
