Swedish metallers DEGRADEAD have issued the following:

Part 3 by the newest member, Amit Mohla (drums):

A new year. An album that is going to kill you!

Right now I’m feeling good. It´s Saturday and I´m just watching a football game on the TV. Newcastle vs. Chelsea… I hate them both and I really don´t care who wins, but it is interesting to watch.

The recording of the drums was damned fun, too bad we did not get to sit all together during the process. At first I was adding the drums, while everyone else was working. I was supposed to be recording from Monday to Friday but I was done with everything on Wednesday. So it took about 3-4 days. The drums are the element that usually takes the longest time, especially when it’s this serious.

Oh yeah, something funny happened (!). I was finished with the drums, and the guys woke me in the morning of the first day that I could sleep properly after the recordings.. So they woke me up, turned over the bed and the mattress, and afterwards they wrapped me in duct tape. Real funny… well… yeah…

Except this event they haven´t been messing with me that much. The worst was the tour where we spent about 18-19 days together. Took much crap like 24/7. The tours were totally fucking awesome! Incredibly fun! I am looking forward to the gigs after the recordings. They are so fucking fun!

I think I have really found my place in the band, and I thrive like hell. I like to take much place and I have really done this! I´ve gotten the chance to put my own imprint on many of the songs, which I think is great.

This will be heard on the album, which otherwise is completely different from any other album Degradead has made. We have a newfound roughness in the band! A little more Slayer, I think. Our thoughts and opinions come from very different places but in the end they´ve all meet in a single point. The sound is great and all this combined leads to a lovely mix.

After the recordings are done there will possibly be a little mini tour but first we will put much emphasis on public relations and promoting the CD. Then it will be tours. Our Manager Janne Lundqvist gets a lot of emails. People are pulling us and want us everywhere.

Don’t be degraded. Be Degradead

DEGRADEAD’s International Blog Is Back, Studio Update, Part 1

Swedish metallers DEGRADEAD have issued the following:

Part 1. by David Szücs (guitars)

A morning in the studio…
We are just about getting started on recording the bass for all the new songs here in the studio which is located in Skara. After a long time away from home, touring, it feels really nice to be back in Sweden.

To sum things up for those who couldn´t be there: We did the Overkill-tour in Europe and were there for about 20 days, and then in Russia for 10 days. Since we´ve been in Russia before we had a feeling about how it was going to be. Totally awesome! Every gig we did was crowded and the people there had really been expecting us. It is really fun when people come up to you with a very limited edition of one of our CD´s that you don´t even have in your own CD-collection. Really hardcore fans. Those CD´s were fun to sign.

Recently, we have worked a lot with our new songs. Micke has done most of the songwriting job and all of us have been rehearsing for the new recordings. There is also a lot of work with pre-productions at home. We´ve almost gotten half-way on the new album (which feels really nice) and we´re going to start recording my guitar on Monday. Today Anders is starting to record bass and then continuing on Monday.

The Overkill-tour was one of the highlights. We visited Polen for the first time and our fans there were almost as crazy as the ones in Russia! They just wanted more!
Otherwise it was a fairly even tour, that went equally good every day. It was the first time for us in England and Italy and many other cool countries.

Shortly we will announce the album cover and title, which of course feels really exciting and we hope you all will enjoy it. This album is a bit different from our others. It has very much soul. A lot of feelings. I feel that we have improved a lot these past months. This album feels really genuine. It is our first album with completely acoustic drums.
Our inspiration for this album comes from life itself.

Get ready for an awesome album!/David

Symfonia: Studio Update, Bass Recordings Completed

Symfonia has issued the following studio update:

“Today Friday we just finished all the bass guitars for the entire album. Fixed a couple of things but it’s working really well. There is one song that is 11 minutes long on the album ( the title track) and Jari has a bass solo in that song. That was the thing we recorded last today.

I just took him to the airport for his flight home. The studio where we recorded the bass will be used for our rehearsals for the show at Finnish Metal Expo in February, we’ll rehearse there for a week. Let’s see what songs we will play but I think I speak for everyone in the band when I say that the energy we feel for that show is already a huge one. We have a plan to film and record that show so everyone will be able to see how Symfonia sounds and looks like live.
The remaining things, guitars, keys, vocals and some extra stuff will be recorded in the next 4 weeks. Andre Matos is writing melodies and lyrics in this very moment and one of these days I’ll catch a plane to Sweden to record the vocals.
So all well here, happy trails to everyone and thanks for your support already now. Cheers, Timo”

Symfonia has issued only couple of minutes ago, the following Studio update, on band’s official blog:

“18 minutes past midnight, just finished for today. Jari “why do I have to follow the kick drum” Kainulainen has recorded bass for 8 songs already. We will finish the rest of the songs tomorrow.

The sauna is on, now we get naked (me, Jari and Chopin’s ghost who lives in this studio) and hit the sauna. Not literally. Uli “Ali the one way pilot”Kusch just sent us a mail. He is fishing in Narvik (attach a picture he sent). He is going for the big one. Not just anyone.  Lots of greetings, J & T”
