Katatonia status 2008

haha eew..

hm yes, i thought it was weird because they added the tourdates in the official website but NOT that sentence blabbermouth added. so maybe they know something we don't or they are just.. weird. :loco:
 
ok here's the deal... we have been supposed to enter the studio on two locations already but ended up postponing both because we simply didn't manage to come up with enough (fantastic) material yet. so we decided booking a studio and working towards a deadline won't work for us this time (while it did work on every album before) that's why we're now in a situation where we'll write the album first and THEN book the studio once we're confident the completed material represents our best. as u can tell, this has been the toughest process of our career trying write and top the last album. there's both a writer's block and pressure involved and we're also not sure were we're going 100%. one side of us wants to make songs like unfurl and explore that sound way deeper and one side wants to go the opposite, so who knows, maybe it'll end up being a balance of them both and not too far from The Great Cold Distance, but at the same time we're determined not to make two albums twice and the same after such a long time has passed inbetween the releases again. its' safe to say tho that we know we'll just follow our guts and go with what feels right for us at the very moment and hopefully it will all be worth it, and feel all right we're done, but it aint easy. we're looking at entering the studio again somwhere between summer-autumn, so the album will most certainly be a 2009 release and once again create a 3 year gap between them.

Ok, we're a month further now.
So, is there any progress so far? Have you guys found a bit more direction etc.?
 
Yup.. just wish the stupid bitch at the dentist clinic would've informed me better about what I should've done with my toothbrushing. Now I have a few semi-holes that will probably be holes. Holes in wallet they'll probably be either way. Sometimes I jsut wanna bang my head into the wall 60 times or so and pass out.
