DONE

We´re just about finished recording the album!!
Damn! This is the shit. We cant wait to release this masterpiece.
Coverart on "bury the lies" will once again be by Lina@spizz.se who helped me out in making the cover for HALO.

Tomorrow we´re selecting the songs and the setlist for the album and then we´re ready to go.
We´re also packing our shit together for Sälen and the boat.

Here´s a few more pictures for you!

POSSESSED

Robert is almost done adding vocals and the songs is really taking shape now.
Me and Mattias added some chorus to a couple of tracks today and it sounds like any song by Def Leppard.

We´re really looking forward to play the bandit boat together with
LILLASYSTER, BLOWSIGHT, THE BANDIT METALIZERS and SONIC SYNDICATE.
It will be alot of fun. and beer.
But mostly fun.
Or beer.

About today´s clip:
Robert told us about a strange feeling or more like a "out-of-body experiance" when he came out of the singingbooth.
-Yeah, like I was possessed he says.
Nah, seriously... he didn´t.
But it actually sounds like it if you listen to the clip below.
I´ve got some lyrics to write now. Sleep tight. (if it´s possible after watching this)

ONE MORE CLIP

So... I added this clip instead.
It´s´a short one, I know, but hey... the size dosen´t matter!

I nearly got blind today! TWICE!!!
First, a guitarstring pinched me like 2 mm from my eye and then my (lovely) girlfriend got some shampoo home from work (Sax o Kam) and when I was supposed to smell it the damn thing squirted in my eye! It still hurts like hell hours after the accident!
Yes, Selfpity is allowed in this blog.

So after seeing the crappiest movie ever (Familj på väg) with robin williams I´m heading for bed.
Enjoy the clip.
Good night.

SINGING TIME

Robert started with the vocals on monday afternoon and continued today.
It sounds great and there´s some strong lyrics coming your way.

I´m sure by now you all know that "Halo" is available in every store right?
It´s been picked up by Swedish Radio P3 already and will hopefully be heard alot.

I don´t understand why the videoclips dosen´t work!
I´ve tried to upload them several times with diffrent settings but no... the damn clips just wont work!!
I will try to catch robert on video tomorrow and try to throw it in here later.

Well... gotta go to sleeeeeeeep.

SHREDDING

Just adding another clip from the studio.
This time mattias is shredding some high notes for the end of a new track.
It´s filmed with a mobile phone so have understanding for the poor quality.

Me and my girlfriend is making our own sushi this evening. It´s going to be delicious.
Take care.

ORDINARY LIFE

Just adding another clip from the studio.
Our PR-Guy, Hansi, is really rockin´ it on the acoustic guitar isn´t he?
Great voice hansi. maybe something got stuck in your throat on the boat back to sweden?

This is just another ordinary day in the studiolife of Takida!



Hang in there duderinos!
