I'd just like to say that if you haven't haven't had the experience of listening to Dave Caswell's music on a system comprising of at least 4 speakers and a sub woofer, you are yet to experience it.
I brought a lovely pair of quality bookshelf speakers today to be used for monitoring in my studio set up untill I can afford the 5 or 6 grand to buy Dynaudio or something equally as insaine for dedicated monitoring. The beauty of the speakers I brought today is that not only will I use them for studio monitoring, but they are doubling as my surround speakers in my home theatre system. I was setting them up and playing a bunch of different music to set the level and distance of every speaker in the system correctly( Katatonia sounded great). I found myself sitting there thinking, what's the most layered sounding music that will image nicely, letting me really hear the difference the new additions to my system have made, and then suddenly I thought of Dave, hahahaha.
Truly, it's quite remarkable. Hearing his more elaborately produced songs in this context really shows you just how much effort he has gone to in the layering of his specific guitar tracks. I found myself nearly crying cause the drum sound and the distortion sound was so not doing justice to how awesome all the clean stuff was sounding. Never the less, it was pretty Impressive. I can't wait to listen to some opeth and Emperor's new album now. So if you have access to a good stereo of more than 2 speakers, and you have copies of any of Dave's songs I recommend listening to his music through a system such as that.

Plenty of new material has been written, some recorded even... once ive finished the demo version of the album ill consider posting something else to the forum. There may be some tracks which dont make it onto the album in which case i'd post them.
