Undead pictures on arrival
We were looking up our Zombie Prom photos online and thought we’d share the whole link with everyone. Check out the photos here to see what you missed.
Your body starts to shiver…
It’s the morning after and we must say the zombie prom was a success. Never thought we would see 400 people in a room dressed as zombies dancing to ‘Thriller’. As for the recording we’re done and have final mixes in hand. Next week it’s off to mastering and then we start the artwork and production. We’re still shooting for a September release!
The return of ‘The Return’
Our label just unearthed another box of ‘The Return’ CD’s. If you want a copy you can get them directly from us for $8. See the merch page for more info.
Studio update
Session #2 is a wrap on the new album. Next week we head back up for vocal touchups and mixing. After that it’s off to mastering. It’s been 4 years in the making and we’re stoked with the songs thus far.
A night of the living dead to remember!
May 10th is the 1st annual Portland Zombie Prom and we’re playing it. There will be bands, DJ’s, costumes, zombies and hopefully enough brains and blood to go around. Tickets are available in advance through TicketsWest. Dig out your Sunday worst, add a splash of dirt and decay and head on out. (It’s a 21+ show … sorry!)
6 down, 8 to go
Studio session 1 is officially a wrap. Drums, bass, both rhythm guitars and even a few vocals are in the bag. So far we’ve got 20 songs and we can tell already it’s going to be hard to select which ones won’t make the album. We got back for a few days next weekend and then finish up the first weekend of May. Hopefully a late summer release?
Hello Seattle
In less than a week we’re off to Seattle to start recording our 5th CD. We’ll try to post some pictures but mostly it’s a lot of sitting around and waiting which isn’t much to write about or see. Something worth seeing is this video which we stumbled upon. Nicely done!
Bloodstains, speed kills, fast cars, cheap thrills
So we lied. We actually do have one show between now and the studio and it’s in Seattle on March 8th with Agent Orange and MDC! We’re stoked! Recording is still on for April and May. We’ve been practicing, fine tuning songs and otherwise just trying to remember how this whole preparing to record thing works. Hard to believe it will have been 4 years since ‘Rise Again’. It’s been so long it feels like the first time. On another note, huge props to Broadway Calls on their continued success! It’s always nice when a local band does well, and it’s even better when it’s a band you know and love. They could quite possibly be the next big thing so go see them before they are huge!
Studio time confirmed!
Finally after 3 years of drummer changes, great shows, awful shows, a canceled tour and even childbirth we’re getting serious about making our 5th full length album. Studio time has been booked for April and May of 2008 at Egg Studios in Seattle. Why are we going to Egg again? Becuase we loved the last two albums and something seemed really appealing about making it a trilogy. With mastering and production we’re looking at a late summer release. Anyway, happy holidays to everyone!
Last weekend of shows for the year
Tonight a show in Richland and tomorrow the Ash Street. Two of our favorite places to play all in one weekend. Ray’s should be rad because it’s Ray’s and Ray’s is always good. The Ash Street will be cool because it’s a reunion show for The Secludes which is one of our favorite Portland bands ever. We play first at that one so please show up early. In the meantime this has been amusing us, as well as this.
