Into the studio



We are currently holed up in Sonic One Studios, in a village called Llangennech which is in South-West Wales, near Llanelli. That's the desk! It's an awesome studio that we have used twice before, and Tim Hammil is an amazing professional to work with. He doesn't record heavy music very often at all (which is part of what attracts us to him), but he has seen our band develop over the past few years, from recording demos when we didn't know what we were doing, to recording this full-length which is how we want to sound. As far as I know, the only other notable album that Tim has done in terms of heavier music is Anterior's debut, which came out last year or so on Metal Blade Records. They are a way different sounding band to us, but you can hear what a good job he has done in making them sound how they should.

So sadly we don't have any studio videos or funny stuff to give you (besides, I broke Kev's video camera on tour). Just to say, we are working really hard at getting this right. We just about finished drums today, and they're sounding nice, warm and powerful. Everything is going to plan, and this full-length will finally show everyone what we're doing and the role we're trying to play amidst the thousands of bands. It's really good fun as well!
