and happy new year

trying not to lose focus in the final moments of this project.

after spending a year on and off on this beast i tend to have good and bad days with it. in the end there is only neutral. it is what it is. i think we all want to hasten the recording process next time around. Of course without damaging the quality of the final product. Every record so far has been a huge and increasingly intense learning experience. Next time around I feel like we probably could start and finish the next project within a smaller window.

the saving grace is that now we get to go out and perform these songs, and hopefully for people who want to see them performed. that is one of the truly exciting parts of music. the collective experience. a chance to breathe new life into the songs and start writing again.

we're aiming to have it all ready for packaging by the 7th. that should put it in our hands for the end of the month. deadlines seem to be pretty publicly pointless with us, but they must serve some psychological purpose within the band or else we'd likely just terminate the use of them.

hey and by the way. we've been mixing in Qatalyst magazine's basement for the last month. check them out.
