Alvorada

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

Track order/track names/album title/transitions are FINISHED and DECIDED! I’ve sent the album off to be mastered by recorded delivery air mail, sparing no expense. I can now announce our next album is 10 tracks long, 50 minutes long and is titled “Alvorada“. There were a lot of different names for each of the songs, but after a lot of consideration here is where we landed on the track names/track listing:

  1. Don’t talk about dust
  2. Stereoscope
  3. Vivo molto
  4. Hour of the wolf
  5. Barricades
  6. He’s wired
  7. Vespertilio
  8. Emissary sleepers
  9. We’re not coming home
  10. Analogues

One song on our myspace/bandcamp will be renamed soon… so 13 Cards = Vivo molto.

Somehow we’ve ended up with 4 different languages between the song titles and album name (English/Portuguese/Italian/Latin) even though I believe none of us are particularly fluent in anything besides English (Jon’s getting better at German).

Also, we had one of our (unmastered) songs released on a 30-track Alter The Press compilation along with Thursday and New Found Glory and a host of other fantastic bands and artists! You can check out the compilation here. I jumped the gun and called it “Stereoscope” by mistake, the actual song is “Vivo molto” (or 13 Cards).

Next up: the artwork for the record (maybe)

Album Number Two

Saturday, March 14th, 2009

Hey everyone, so after sweating away a night of free time on this site it’s ready to show to the world. I thought I’d catch everyone up with what I know about our next album.

We don’t have a name for it. It’s 10 tracks long. It clocks in at about 50 minutes. The artwork will be by me (I run a graphic and web design company) and a talented illustrator called Stephen Daoud. The final day of mixing is today. After it’s mixed we’re sending it off to be mastered in America by Alan Douches. He’s mastered Sufjan Stephens, Grandmaster Flash, These Arms Are Snakes, Mastadon, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventures in Surround… we figure he’s got the credibility to working with us on this record!

If you hadn’t heard already, we have two tracks online right now. Check them at bandcamp or our myspace page.

Update: Don’t go elsewhere… here is the music!
