Right now working on the production of a song made for an online collab where I did the guitars and programmed drums.

I've been pretty absent from internet and now I have a lot of ideas for Forestfather tracks and some new songs almost completely written. Too different styles tho, when I make the demos I'll be sending the stuff to Mike and Jared so we decide what will conform the next release.

Hurry up with them demos, times perfect for me to work on them!

did a little bit today in the morning.

wrote and recorded

3 Kamikaze Pilots
1 54R
1 Corpse Arise
1 Mountain of Beard

Finally! Finished writing the first song on aforementioned black metal demo. Now on to the second song. Right now just searching for riffs.

Dude you work so fuckin fast, why can't musicians(especially drummers) like that live near my area T.T

On a sidenote, Jorgen Sandstrom (Grave/Torture Division), the man himself, shared our cover of Into The Grave on his personal facebook, how cool is that?

haha cause they are all lazy bastards. I might not be the most technical or flashy drummer but I pretty much know how to lock into a groove for something and blast with it. Helps that all the songs I know in and out since I'm playing them haha.


congrats on the share.

what the hell would that link be?

Thought of a good title for the demo:

"Anti-Human Manifesto"

Fuck yeah.

Finishing a harsh noise wall album, working on some beats for some DC rappers, and finished a small DSBM demo, just gonna mix and master.

a DSBM demo eh? Sounds interesting.

Aye, probably gonna hit you up for so,e vocal work.

Was going to work on more noise material on my day off but my Mom decided to stay home today.

Comp. I'm featured on. Too bad the song title is wrong.

worked with a friend from the state over on an album of a really d-beat-heavy crusty death metal album. we nailed out 4 songs today, which isn't as much as I wanted to get done today with how much time we spent but I guess from starting from practically scratch with the songs and working with someone who never had recorded before it turned out amazingly well. pretty damn furious thus far. hopefully we can nail out the remainder of the planned album and then some.

Man, that's all a drummer's gotta do! Too bad those are the things that so many of them seem to forgo in favour of "crazt fast pedals, yo!" or squeezing as many fills as possible into a measure, timing be damned. And by God, there are so feeewwww of them to choose from.

yea in a blast beat I don't want to hear 2 secs of blasting and then a fill, I want to see if you can fucking hold out that blasting for all 4-8 measures. that's more skill to me and more powerful sounding. I've done my fill (no pun intended) in playing ungodly fast for the sake of ungodly fast and throw in a fill every measure and sometimes a 2nd fill in the middle of the measure... but nowadays if I do that, I do it in context of the song so it sounds good, not just cause I can. I've been playing for like 11 years now.. only realized that more in the last 2.

Oh, dope Possessor. I just noticed you are Pentu. Sweet that we're on the same comp.

Same with you man. Just finished making a song with a drill and two cell phones as my instruments. I haven't made any new tracks since the compilation song so I'm getting in the mood again.

This is not finished, but you can already get the idea:

I did drums and guitars. Guys from Skald, Faelwa and Nattsmyg are doing the rest.

Sounds good man!

yesterday got a ton of interruptions while trying to record doing errands and having to go get blood work done for stupid insurance survey...

anyway i still managed to get 5 KP songs written and recorded and 5 54R songs written and recorded.

just finished finalizing all the tracks for the yzord comp I have planned and have the cover done, just need to go on and get the rest of the layout completed and it's good to go.

finished a cover of 4 Non-Blondes "What's Up?" using the microphone and beat-making program on my phone.

Not so much having to do with being a musician, but just updated my distro list on NWN forums, here, and my distro site. Hoping to get some trades going soon, having fun with this distro business thus far.

Seriously, you're probably the most shameless hipster on metal-archives.

I just like what I likes.

Late to the party but wasn't going to let this gem go without saying "Fuck. Yes."

Well i'm tired as fuck so I'll keep this short around 9am I decided I'll kill myself and do an special ep to be released today.
opted to release it under KP cause it also is a sorta 2 year anniverary for when I started the project that was on 12/10/10 so why better way to celebrate that and this date than do an ep titled 12/12/12

all was composed/recorded/mixed/and finally released (at least digitally cause it's not like I can make cds appear in hours) but they are on the way..

12 songs released on 36 cds.

fuck it... it's bedtime.

I am now a proud possessor of Mixcraft 6 and EZDrummer.

Just released my new Arabic neoclassical/ambient black metal song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkHget3BouY

And now I am finishing a Mortifera cover song (Epilogue...), also in a neoclassical style.
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEQmiLXliYU)

So I might be doing a live show for my noise project. Hopefully I can figure out what the fuck I will be doing since what I do is mostly studio work.

Made my first working drum track for a project in EZdrummer earlier. Emailed it off to our producer for putting into the main song earlier and celebrating my minor accomplishment by watching a scathing review of Paranormal Activity 4.

do what you do for recording... just live.

I have a couple of friends that does their noise band Handals live.

Well It's going to be at a restuarant I think or something like that. I got my really shitty Yamaha keyboard so I think I'm just gonna play some synth stuff and run it through my Peavey pedal and Big muff and just yell into a mic and touch peoples food and drink until they turn me off.

This was the problem with the old ones, the last one was even my brother...and I should have known better!

Had a great rehearsal session today, and after watching a Megadeth documentary, gonna learn to play the Lucretia solo out of boredom.

xThe__Wizard, sounds like it would be a good plan going like that. Also try to sit in dude's laps.

short day today cause I actually slept in today.. but I'm happy with what I've completed.

6 Kamikaze Pilots songs which now finish the full length album aside from vocals on it which that'll take a few days to knock out.
also got the last 5 Corpse Arise songs I wanted to do for this next ep completely done. Now i just have to sit and arrange all the artwork and mix everything down

I just ordered some Alesis monitor 1s. I'm super excited. Up until now, I've mixed everything on a shitty pair of $20 dollar computer speakers - which is why the bass is pretty much absent from my last album. I also just ordered an Engl E530 and a Randall ISO cab, so I can record at reasonable volumes. They should be here in a few days. I'm really excited to have that Engl. So, new computer, new monitors, new bass, new strings(!), and a new apartment in a great area of Maryland. Once I get my monitors I'm going to re-record all the guitar, bass, and vocal tracks for my new album and then release it. I'm hoping to release it around Feb 2013. It'll be melodic death metal and like my previous release, all will go to charity.

Is it normal for single strings to lose their intonation once the string gets old/rusty? (assuming when you put on a new set it was fine)

yes that's exactly what happens. it's decaying

Yes, this is especially true for bass strings but every string suffer the same fate over time. The same happens when you change drastically the tension of the string, being tuning/detuning it too often or using used strings.

Btw, this is the final version of the song I uploaded earlier:

Fuck... Image Line is having an 'end of the world' sale on all their plugins. I am so close to completely blowing my xmas budget.
