Orchestra?

[(/\)olf Hunter]

Do you think DL should bring a bigger orchestral element to the next album. or mabye a small string quortet to boost up the atmosphere of the album. Or do you think thats going too far.

i betcha they might just do that...

 

[Supermoi]

That would rock.

heard a sneak preview the other day of the new DL...

one word: WOW.

Ok thats just teasing. im so jelious. So do think orchestral bakcing would fit in nicely.

I think it'll take 7 more years of posting and getting bits of info on you before I figure you all out...

I think the string 'quartet' should just be the two guitars and bass! I also like that Lyle's keyboards can be heard clearly but aren't at the emphasis of the DL sound (not like Plague's End or Embrace...) That may be an unfair comparison but I'm a sucker for THRASH!

well, the orchestra thing might happen "someday," but not anytime soon.

I wouldnt mind hearing some sort of sad violin intro thingy or sumfin. i think some quite little orchestral elements would be great. Nothing over the top.

What a tease!! , That sounds awesome. I mentioned to Steve that they should keep it up with the evil keyboards and moody minor keys they play in. I can NOT WAIT to hear what it's gonna sound like. Sound clips would RULE !!!

At the risk of asking a really stupid question ms. anthrope, are they demos that they are working on or are they actually recording stuff for the new album?

 

[RydManiac]

Hell Yeah, is it going to be the same line up ??

 

[ms. anthrope]

well, not the same as the the 1st CD. derrick ramirez will be on bass. he's a fine player and cool guy .

 

[hiddenlegions]

Derrick rips on bass.

I spent a bit of time with the local metal indie store guy the other day -- gets the impression that there might be a significant orchestral element in future work. I don't really have an opinion on this -- the stuff I own rarely has anything other than drums, guitar and bass. I can count on one hand the CDs I have that even have any significant keyboards. So a orchestra will probably be out of place to me.

Dimmu? Borknagar? I don't know their material, I though I heard they have orc/keyboard elements...

 

[irishreaper]

That sounds good, can you say how it compares to Rapture?

 

[ms. anthrope]

hmmm... some little birdy is singing !

 

[The saYer]

you know what the cover should look like??

THE SAME ONE AS RAPTURE EXCEPT THAT THE BACKGROUND IS FIRE RED!!!!!!!!!
