PROJECT: FAILING FLESH: Putting Finishing Touches On New Album
December 7, 2005PROJECT: FAILING FLESH's Kevin 131 (GARDEN OF SHADOWS, TWISTED TOWER DIRE, BRAVE, WHILE HEAVEN WEPT) has issued the following update on the recording sessions for the group's new album, "The Conjoined":
"We have just about finished mixing the new record. I have spent the last few weeks doing mixes, letting them rest awhile, then going back and doing recalls and minor adjustments. All the songs are mixed now and Tim (and myself) are listening and making notes. Eric [Forrest, vocals; ex-VOIVOD] is back in France and forced to listen to rough mixes only... for now. A few have asked about the new record, so I wanted to post a new update. Things are well underway... as most everyone knows, the process takes awhile. Doing a song a day, give or take... a few were upwards to 60-70 tracks. The title track ('The Conjoined') has a drum core section that alone was 20-30 tracks. Not to mention mikes all over the place. And then the takes of close miked drumming stuff that me and Tim did in addition. So just getting them sorted out took the better part of a day. What the hell were we thinking when we recorded these songs? I may have to punish Tim for this. Certainly no presents for Christmas this year. The songs are sounding great, very happy with them. But I guess every band says that about their new record. Eric sounds the best he ever has, Tim's riffing and ideas are sick as usual, and the songs are quite varied. Nice places that break it up with strange parts. Same as last time, we just did whatever we wanted to for this record. It's not all the same type of sound all the way through, enough things to keep it interesting. Artwork in progress, mastering next, and then we are aiming for a release early 2006. Before then we will have an Internet-only track available for download on www.myspace.com/projectfailingflesh. It will only be available there, not even on our official website until a bit later. Go and add us there if you'd like to be informed when it comes out, we will make a post when it is."
PROJECT: FAILING FLESH's debut album, "A Beautiful Sickness", was released in the U.S. earlier this year via Candlelight Records USA. The CD was issued in Europe last September through Holland's Karmageddon Media (formerly Hammerheart Records).
