A Boring December

Been awhile since my last update...the Christmas season has been putting me in a bad mood for the last bunch of years...I always get kind of down around the holidays. So hence, I end up in super lazy mode...But, with each passing day, shit improves...Bring on 08!!

So, last entry I wrote about my truck...still sitting there as I have no cash to fix it...and to make matters worse, a couple of weeks ago, some dickless fuck stain put a brink through one of my windows...So, more shit to fix...On the upside, the busted the side that is already trashed...

On the Cardiac front, the new album is about ready for mastering. The second mix was a real winner...just a few more tweaks and it is ready to go...The layout is about 95% done as well. We are projecting a mid February release, but don't quote me on that just yet...

We'll be playing in Milwaukee on Saturday night with our buddies, Face of Ruin...I am sure this show will go a lot smoother than our last Wisconsin trip (read the Sept blogs for the excitement that happened) At any rate, we are looking forward to the show...It will be our first one since Sept and we will be playing mostly new material...I'm sure I'll do a write up on it on Sunday sometime...

I'll have another update soon on some shows we will be doing in 2008...We are already confirmed on three fests...More details as the become available...

On the Severed front, Free Cuts is mixed...Our drummer Danny and studio guru Alex done it as I am kind of immobile right now. Can't wait to hear it. Almost there!!! It's a long time coming!!


Hope everyone had a good Xmas!! Be safe on New years as well!!

Updates And More Bad Luck For Yours Truely...

Well, December rolls in again with more shittiness for myself...More on that later...I'll talk about the good stuff first...

Cardiac had our first practice since the recording process started. All went well, although Jim seemed too charged up and played a bit too fast...But at any rate, if felt like we never missed a beat...We got through all the new material as well as a few older tunes...

I should be getting a burned copy of Cadaverous Presence today. Jim and Kai worked on the mix over the weekend. Basically, we will all listen to this CD and take notes on if anything sounds out of whack...So basically, almost ready for mastering...

I was supposed to start mixing the Severed songs yesterday (Sun)...however, not to be. I got in an accident Downtown Chicago on the way to pick up Vinny (bass) My truck was pretty trashed...Gonna get it driveable first...I'll worry about the caved in door later...Here are the pics of the damage...

Yay for me, eh?? It seems like every year in December, something happens to the poor Tahoe...Last year, the fuel pump went...the year before that, the transmission went...And I remember my windshield cracking in December before that...Onward and upward though...

Next blog will have some better stuff...there are a couple of bands I want to talk about and recommend as well as a possible rant in regards to the so called "scene"
