It's been 3 weeks since we started recording songs for the album at Snakeweed Studios. So far, we've completed "Lollipop", "Stranger", "Crowded" and "If It Wasn't For You".
As expected, recording has been a tedious and challenging process. Tedious due to the long hours, and challenging in terms of how we now have to think out of the box. Leonard (our producer) commented that some parts of our songs sound somewhat empty, so we need to think of how we can add more layers to them.
Not the easiest thing to do, considering how we've become so familiar with the songs as they currently are.
Next weekend will see us recording "Go Away" and "Hold On", while we'll continue to brainstorm for song lyrics, cover art concepts and that elusive album title. We're also thinking of launching the album in the last quarter of the year.
As for gigs, we're about to have our first one for 2008. Come February 19th, we'll be performing at a kick-ass rock festival to be held within NTU. Watch this space for upcoming details!
