It's been a while since my last update The holidays and life in general have created
a long string of priorities more important than playing with my guitars After about two months of writer's block, however, I
finally have a full working skeleton of Anthem. Well, skeleton is a
bit of an understatement. More of a skeleton with a 23 minute circulatory
system, nervous system, wimpy musculature and a little bit of skin. In the words of Dr. Frankenstein, "It's
ALIVE!!!"
I was so excited to listen to it in its entirety that I
bounced it down to my iPhone so I could play it on my drive to poker night
(what a fun way to lose $20). I get in the car, plug it in, and . . . silence.
Then organ. . . 23 minutes of organ. . . I left the track solo'd when I bounced the song. Very
disappointing. Needless to say I did a
proper bounce this morning and I am pretty happy with the results.
Jay is getting his studio up and running. We had a chance to work together during my
recent trip to NY. I'm really excited
about the direction this project is heading. The next album looks to be significantly
more sophisticated, developed and proggy than Judgment. Longer songs, more
rhythmic complexity, dripping with wholesome prog goodness. Hopefully destined to become an important
part of a healthy prog diet. Come on .
. . clean your plate. . . there are listeners starving in Europe. . .
