Official Day 1 : "Jesus Crouse"

This is the first official Diary entry for the recording of our second full length album. 
We thought it would be a nice gesture to inform you of what goes on behind the studio walls. In studio preproduction actually started about 10 days ago but today is our first official day of recording. What this means is that 10 days ago we brought our demo tracks to Bellville studios for Theo Crouse to rip apart and help us reassemble them as songs. I started playing basic drums to the new song structures as Theo was churning them out and now it seems that my drums are done - Theo likes a very straight and simple approach to drums. Less is more or something like that. 
 The other guys spent the first half of the day finding the best guitar and bass tones for the recording. Theo made the most of his lunch break and him and his wife went to the doctor to catch a sonar glimpse of his child to be.
 Right now, Hunter is tracking some guitar parts and the rest of us are lounging around, making crude jokes and smoking cigarettes with glorious conviction. 
All our previous material was recorded away from home at B# Studios in Boksburg, so for us its refreshing to be working at home for a change.
OK we'll keep you posted and get some photos on this Motherlicka.
Alles wat Mal is!
