Well, hello!
Hey everyone. Gosh I need to make a different Journal.
It's been quite a while since I have posted in this. Also I haven't gotten to see hardly any of you in so long it seems. Sorry.
Life has been pretty good. Pretty busy.
We went in the studio and recorded 11 songs. I can't wait until you all can hear this stuff. I am very proud of it. So even if you don't like it, I still do. Look for it on Purevolume, hxcmp3 etc. very soon. I'll let you know. (We still have to mix and master it.) No name for the disc yet, though "The Flying Guillotine" is ringing nicely in my ears. We are thinking the release will be sometime in June or July, though no date has been set yet. We will not be rushing this one, thank god.
We still haven't started booking much, because, well, we have just been really busy. Though a little on the poor side. This winter has been rough on our vehicles, as well as on our wallets. We haven't been working barely at all, though that should change very shortly here as work is lining up for at least the next 4 months. Yes! Soon we will be able to get merch etc., then start booking like mad. If things work out right, we should start playing again regularly at the end of this month. Cross your fingers!
We have a temporary site up at www.onthefrontlines.net
We will be keeping the domain name, but the page that is up will only be to hold over until Drew and Adam from SYNT can take some time from their busy schedules to help us with our site. Thanks very much to them. Love those guys.
Lydia has grown so much even since I last posted. I swear that child will be able to rock the mic within a year. She is crazy! I love her so much. She is always yelling, "Daaaeeee Daaaeee!!!" Or daddy if ya couldn't make that out.
Alana and I have been doing good as well. I believe that we will be moving out soon, within 4 months or so.
I have been at work acquiring my diploma as well. I should have it by the end of April. Oh and I started a side project. No name yet. It's fun stuff.
In other news... I have been watching lots of anime and kung fu movies, and playing Resident Evil 4 and some Final Fantasy, some star ocean. I read the wu-tang clan book by the RZA, and it was good. In case anyone was wondering, our new music is a lot faster and heavier. Some songs are really grindy. Some songs have lots of two-stepping. Lots of them have lots of thrash thrown in. Breakdowns have been toned down a bunch. They are definitely still there, just a lot heavier, but with less frequency and better placement structurally speaking.
So, again, I am sorry for not being around at shows or anything. I have been to a couple MT. P shows. I plan on attending the Summer Dying Show tomorrow. I have enjoyed getting to spend a lot more time with Alana, Lydia, and the rest of my family. But I have missed everyone as well. Someone could call every once in a while or something!
Well... I hope to see you soon!
