Friday was the last day in the studio. It took us a little longer than we expected, but not a minute of the time we spent in the studio was wasted and, thinking back to our initial expectations of what we would get down on tape, we are very satisfied with what we came out with. To be honest, it´s a little disorienting to be finished. We spent a long time thinking about it as an organic thing that could be influenced as we went along and now it is unchangeable. Finished. Anyway, we really like it and we hope you do too.
So, we´ve put 3 tracks up on myspace for you to listen to. Click here to listen. Feel free to let us know what you think.
As usual, lots of good things are also happening right now. We´re putting together an EP package for people to buy at our concerts. We´re still not sure of whether to do a big release and get it distributed. We could do it ourselves but it would take a lot of administrative time and effort that would perhaps be better spent on developing as a band. This experience in the studio has been huge for us. We have a really exciting vision for the music we want to make and the band we want to be and, although we really like what we do now, we know that we have some serious work ahead of us. To do the work that we think the record justifies in terms of all the business end of stuff - the printing, distribution, promotion, legal stuff - might be counter productive for us at this point if we do it ourselves. Strange times. There are tons of options to get online distribution very quickly and easily, mind. We´ll sort something out I´m sure.
Big news this week is the tram gig on Saturday 19th. We´re playing on a tram with The Little Hands Of Asphalt here in Oslo from 19.00 til 21.00 ish. I know. In addition, a gig on Monday 21st September at Mono. They say it´s a big deal. Woooh! Check them out as well, they are great.
Freddy has done us an Urørt site. Check it.
In the meantime, we have a new member, Sturla, on bass. That´s a damn fine Norwegian name if I ever heard one. Remember to pronounce the u as in "WOOOHH!". That takes us to Fredrik, Rudi, Håkon and Sturla. A quite frankly preposterous selection of names.
Follow us on twitter to keep up with gig info,there´s a good girl.
Stay cool and remember to always celebrate good times. Ahthankingyooou.
