Catch the April edition of the Grave Forsaken podcast. In this edition we discuss the new recording we've started at Luke's home studio!
Hi everyone, mixing of the latest EP is well underway. Last night Elias and I sat down and had a good listen to four of the songs. We are really happy with what weve achieved with our home recording setup. The songs we mixed were Ehyer Asher Ehyer, So We Carry On, Crisis and Prisoner Of Consequence. My goal for the next week is to get 5 of the 8 songs mixed fully. Upon listening last night, Elias and I identified 3 songs that could use a few more guitar parts. Nothing complicated, just little bits that will improve the songs.
We are looking forward to wrapping this project and getting on with the next goal. We have been in discussion over the next move for the band. We have a number of different recording projects in mind and it's a matter of picking one and seeing it through. Because each album takes us about a year from start to finish, we have to carefully decide what is next. For example, this EP has been a huge undertaking. Without Dan's guidance we've had to work out a lot of things as we go. Hence the 8 tracks have taken much longer than hoped to even get to this point. However, we have a track record of delivering an album nearly every year, so we're confident we'll finish whatever we start. Rambling enough?
Catch you all next time!
I have been working on the mix for Prisoner Of Consequence. So far so good, I'm really pleased with this song
Going to be doing some EP mixing tonight. I think I will just go through them song by song from start to finish over the next couple of weeks.
Just a reminder we now have Reap What You Sow shirts available from our webstore at www.graveforsaken.com/store
Going to spend some time this week mixing the EP!
Elias and I finished tracking the EP on Thursday. Next job is to work through editing it. And I might re-record one or two vocal tracks depending on how the mixes sound. My vocals are always the hardest thing for me to be discerning about.

24th February 2013 - I'm starting to feel a lot better after my appendicitis. Going to be going back to work tomorrow. We won't be practising this week because a couple of us are heading to Kiss on our rehearsal night. Week after though should be a good chance to get back into it. It's been a slow start to the year, I'm looking forward to getting back into it!

21st February 2013 - Hi everyone, Vaughan here. I've managed to catch up on emails and get the ball rolling on a few projects I've had on the backburner. I'm putting into place some measures to insure we will always have access physical copies of our albums, particularly the ones we have released more or less independently. So if you're after a physical copy of some of the more obscure stuff, you might not have to wait long! I hope you're all having a good day.
