Just wanted to stop by and upload this short teaser video Matt put together for the new album. It gives some brief glimpses inside the barn and we have a slightly more in depth “barn tour” video on the way. We have six songs tracked excluding vocals, here is the list with working titles:
Bottom of the Gun
White Light Heat
Modern Age
E Song
Science
Blame the West
We’ll be doing another couple weeks of songwriting to finish up the remaining five or six songs and then more recording. Check back soon for more clips and things.
Hello everyone, I’m back in civilization for a bit to make this post. We’ve been holed up in a barn since Saturday recording tracks for the record. It’s been very cold and very exciting. Drums have been tracked for “Bottom of the Gun” and “White Light Heat”. We finished electric guitars on “White Light Heat” last night and Matt laid down some nice thick delayed guitar on “Bottom of the Gun”. The vibe out here is great and it’s coming through on the tracks. Dark, woody and raw. Matt and I have been playing with video cameras and a projector Johnny was kind enough to bring out. Channeling our inner psychedelia. Matt has also been filming constantly and we’ll get some of that up here soon. I’m trying to post small snippets to twitter whenever possible. Until next time, here is a clip of us cutting some vocals.
