In The Studio - Day 2

 

It's our second day in the studio, if you didn't get that from the headline. We're at "the clubhouse" in Rheinbeck, NY. We're recording drums right now in a big barn an living in the attached 5 bedroom farmhouse. It's pretty cool up here, if you're into this sort of thing. I was born and raised in Queens, NY so living on 10 acres of woods and being 5 miles from the nearest store is totally not my scene. We're trying to work out some sort of video update to give everyone a tour if the studio.

We spent all day yesterday and most of today getting drum sounds. We're recording in this huge barn so they're sounding pretty huge. At around 4:30pm today we decided on some tones and we started tracking. So far we have 1 drum take done for a song we're calling "SONG A" right now, for obvious reasons. We haven't came up with an official name yet. The chorus of the song is "The healing power of alcohol only works on scrapes and nicks, not on girls in seedy bars that drown themselves in it". If you think you have a good title, let us know. Chris is kicking ass so far. He's just going back into the drum room to start tracking a song we're calling "Master of Muppets" for absolutly no reason other then needing to call it something until we have a real title. If you've seen us live lately, that's the new song we've been playing.

We're going to be up here in Rheinbeck for about another week and then we head down to Queens to get started on bass and guitars. We expect to be finished with the record sometime in early December. Shortly after we finish recording, we're going to be playing 8 shows in the Northeast in small clubs just for kicks. All the shows are booked already but we're holding off on announcing club, date and ticket info until we feel like we're ready.

I know i haven't updated in a whille but I'll be back on the ball now that we're settled into the studio.

Yay, updates.
The whole "drums in a barn" thing sounds pretty awesome.
As does the chorus to "Song A."
I hope you play in a small club in Manhattan.
I'd love to see you guys live.

I love you guys/am extremely happy you updated.

Can't wait to hear the new album!!

"Master of Muppets" sounds awesome live.

And way to read my mind, I was just thinking earlier today that you haven't updated in a while.

Ahhhh I hope you come to the Palladium, even though you were just here 2 months ago.

And I was thinking "Eight [[or any other number]] To Die" might be a good title.

<33

i guess i DIDNT see your van today.

surface wounds sounds like a good title (props to whoever came up with that) and it fits in with the walking wounded...

i cant wait for february!

"Red Wine Stains Worse Than Red Blood." ...or some variation of it.

I can't wait for this new album. Acoustic was the album that really saved my life, and I owe you guys so much for that. Plus I need some new challenges on guitar... Montauk is my current.

PS Ant, you guys need to come to Peppermint Beach Club again in December. I miss talking hockey with Nick and Jack being... Jack

Yay for an update! Everytime you update I get filled with an excitement.. it makes me want to fly to the upcoming shows up north. ooh.. i want to go...

as for the song title.. maybe something like, "correctional facilty" or "twisting of treatments"... just a thought.. dunno. hope this helped and the new album sounds like it's going to be phenomenal. <3

Much Love,
~Kelly F.

I cant wait till the new album!!!

"Power of alcohol" might be a good one??

keep updating!!! =]

ok heres what im thinkin since your song is about alcohol it should be titled "Staying Single, Seeing Double" like its clever and plus it would be cool if that was the title its catchy....

Title: "Hemmingway's Got Nothing On Me."

Visit cow_horse's Xanga Site!

"Healing Habbits", "Call It What You Want", "Dis-Infect Yourself", "Healing Dysfuncitonality"....

Man, I cant wait for the new album. I got alot of compliments on my "cult" Hoodie at my schools football game. For some reason, i dont think Kansas is a very popular destination for bayside, especially SW Kansas. I hope your manager or whatever isnt a dick like halifax's, im trying to organize a show down here in Garden City ks, and he said they "wont be availible"......"Ever".  I sure do hope you guys will be availible-Spelling error?

Any how, those are the names i can come up with, you guys should really use one of the names left on a comment to make a xange/bayside fan fell extra warm inside, even if you dont choose one of mine!

-Blame it on bad luck
