New news concerning the album! Lets help out with the title!

[GONE Ridin' Hood]

I can´t believe it....We made it! It´s done and there is nothing I can do about it. Just got back from the studio where everything is now shipped off to Denmark where Tue Madsen will perform his magicky magic on the things we´ve been working on these last 7 weeks.

I just finished the last vocal lines a couple of days ago and it feels sweet. As always with recordings there is alot of stress and selfdoubt but being in a more than familiar environment in Martin's studio (Rogue) has helped tremendously. The recordings have not only been smooth and focused but the overall feeling that we are creating something amazing has really driven us through this.

It turned out so different and diverse that the hardest thing for me now is to find a suitable title for the whole thing. How can i sum up in a title something that is everything and nothing, grounded and out there, intorvert and extra-terrestial all at the same time?

Well, keep watching this space and I will let you know soon enough.

Right now I am just so glad it´s done. Anders did a fantastic job grinding and beating (off) in the studio, Micke has delivered some really crushing bass, Martin and Niklas have really outdone themselves with great riffs and truly outstanding solos and Martin B has poured alot of misery and anxiety into his soundscapes.
Now all we do is wait for the mix, and this being our first time mixing out of house so to speak we are really excited to hear what the hell we´ve been up to!

Cheers,

Great news, can't wait for the new album!!!

Actually it's interesting because as everyone knows I (and some other phorum members) was/am (were) dissapointed with the two songs previously "released" (WTIMA, BAH), but I actually feel VERY excited about the new album!!!

If the album is like what Mikael says, boy, I'm going to love it! I just imagine a combination of every DT album froming an über-DT album! Damn I'm so fucking turned on now hehe .

I can't wait, c'mon we want an EP/Single/whatever!!!

Though I don't think that'd be possible, since the songs are so different from each other... oh well that's not my call hehe .

WEEEEE I"M SOOOO HAPPY!!!!

*ahem*

Well, as everyone knows Mikael is apparently having a tough time thinking of a title for the cd hehe, so I though, why don't we give him a hand?

I know it's very difficult becaus we have only heard two songs (in very bad quality :zombie: ), so we really have no idea of have tha album will be/is, but I say lets try to invent some titles that may suit the album. We can also get some ideas based on the comments made by Mikael on this last entry.

So, lets start!

I read a post by someone around here and I must agree with him/her, a really good title for the new album would simply be Dark tranquillity. Why, because the name is so powerful, it encompasses a lot of things but lets it open for new ideas, just like Mikale says the cd will be.

I (and DT I guess hehe) await thy ideas!



PS: Can't really wait, I'm becoming more excited about this album minute by minute!

 

[plintus]

Mikael will do just fine.

 

[Siren]

I agree with plinny. If Mikael needed our help he would just ask.

And wtf is a "cobination of every DT album"? DT albums made to sound like COB?

 

[GONE Ridin' Hood]

Hahaha no, that is what you call a typo hehe, 'tis combination of every DT album . I'll correct that now hehe .

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other word would smell as sweet."

 

[Nt3N]

given the circumstances, "this is the magic that a name would stain" seems more appropriate to me.

 

[The Minds Eye]

I'm pretty damn excited, Character was awesome. I'd enjoy them to do a song with a female singing like on Gallery though... I can dream can't I?

Let's just leave the damn thing without a title.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Just call it Dark Tranquillity, and have the cover all black...

 

[Siren]

Maybe add a snake too, somewhere?

 

[plintus]

Maybe add a snake too, somewhere?

was too cliché to mention

 

[InsArtTure]

I dont think Stanne will be any interested in our discussions here.

I agree that he will "do just fine" But it is true that we, fans always want to contribute to the work of the band.

Here is my suggestion: "DEMESNE" It will sound more than fine. I can explain why.

About the new album? I already said what I had to say: I dont know HOW I WILL WAIT!

 

[rahvin]

A few suggestions:

"That which we call a rose is, in fact, much more metal than that"

"Forum members can't agree on jack shit"

"Millennium hand and shrimp"

"Character was awesome, dude"

Or, if we want to model it over a variation on Blind at heart:

"Dumb in Las Vegas"

"Naked at Ozzfest 2007"

"Numb at the pinky"

"Bereft at the smorgasbord"

 

[Nt3N]

"Character was awesome, dude"

this one is just fine!

 

[Taliesin]

How about "Silence.. and the pubes withdrew" ?

 

[marduk1507]

Or "With the Laming Shades of Balls".

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Cock Mountain

 

[King Chaos]

The New Pube

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

"Millennium hand and shrimp"

Yes!

 

[King Chaos]

hahaha what the fuck does that mean? Such a glorious phrase.

I reckon "The Chronicles of Zombie Jesus Stanne!" would sum up what I imagine they have created.
