What's Up Everyone,
Writing this from Florida as I packed my bags and came down here for a week to get some sun and relax a little. Hanging here is nice and the weather is beautiful! It is hotter than hell but the sun is shining so I can't complain.
Last week we spent a lot of time working on some of the new material and working out the kinks and it feels like it's starting to take shape. We've been spending a lot of time talking about the direction of the new song(s) and what we want them to sound like (None of us want it to be the same as the last set of material we wrote) and how we're trying to evolve but still have our signature sound on it so it is interesting to see the direction we're going in and how we're trying to get it down just right! We spent many years writing the first 2 albums as "Condemned" and then spent another 5 or 6 writing "Evolution's Mistake" so to start writing so quickly the last thing we want is to have another Evolution's Mistake on our hands…and that's the difference when you aren't signed and don't have to go on tour for 2+ years to promote the album. We've always seen writing as an evolving process and (at least for me) a way to challenge ourselves as musicians and as a band.
I'm sure sooner or later we'll be out there playing at least some of the new stuff….maybe even on August 1st with The Agonist but we'll see how it's coming together closer to the date…
Cheers everyone and I'm off to the beach!
