Days 13 and 14 = Completion!!

Well, Cadaverous Presence is finally done. We wrapped up recording yesterday. 14 songs, 14 studio sessions...not bad!!

Last Sunday, we were to finish vocals, but we were kind of short on time. Adam completed what was left of his parts. I did some of mine, but was not really happy with some of what I was doing. Amsterdamn had to leave early as well, so we firgure why rush through it and not be happy with the performance...

Amsterdamn got to the studio yesterday about an hour before me (yes, I am always late) and got started...he had some great last minute additions here and there which we added...we did a lot of the backing accents and the screams...Went much smoother that the week before...

So, what is next??? Well, we should have a near complete mix ready in about a week. We'll all listen to it and recommend what levels needs to be fixed (if any...Kai is pretty good)...Once we are happy, it will be off to Patrick Bruss for Mastering...For those that don't know, Patrick is the madman behind Crypticus...He is also responsible for the excellent remasters for the Impetigo re-issues from Razorback Records...So, I think it is safe to say, we are in good hands...

We will begin practicing again in the next week or so...We will have to basically shake the rust off...we have not practiced together since this studio thing happened...we should be fine though...we have been playing these songs know for quite a while, so it is just basically getting back in the groove...Basically, we will be putting together a set list which will incorporate the new material, which we want to focus on live...Of course, there will be a couple of the faves present as well...Once that is all settled and tight, I am sure we will be in writing mode again. We have a lot of strong riffs in the "riff storage bin" but we are not going to rush into anything...

More updates to come...I'll probably spill the beans soon about track listing and maybe post a sneak peek of the awesome artwork by Putrid...I also know there will be some press releases coming soon...

Also, we will be announcing some big shows for 2008 shortly...

Cheers all!!
