The Living Fields/Solemnus Split Project

[Oak Knoll]

Area for chatting about this project. Basically it would involve Jason (from the Living fields and myself). Some details and items to discuss:

• Estimate date for pressing? Q1 2006
• Artwork and layout
• Jason has the master for TLF and I'm pretty sure WAVs for Solemnus
• will press 500 or 1000 (minor price different but maybe 500 limited)

Here are the album covers we were looking at:

All the comps I put together for consideration

Ok i saw we use the main large image we picked out. I emailed Cor (forgot his full name) to join our message forum. So basically we are waiting for Jason to get me the layout and show me the space I can put a blurb in about Solemnus. We should try to use of the artwork That Solemnus gave for the pictures and names if possible or a little thumbnail of the demo releases. I'll see what more text info I can get from Solemnus. But atleast we have the WAVs and some low res artwork ( I send some old stuff- but then again I have some higher res scans/images with the whole Solemnus demo being shown). Let me know what you need.

specs.. 500 to 1000 cds (probably 500 limited)
2 pages (is that 4 panels?)
4/1 booklet, 4/0 insert unless it's no price different for 4/1
cd face - the less colors the better but i don't want it like one color text on silver or anything - i prefer a graphic

did I leave anything out? I'm track times?
Solemnus - A Nightshade Symphony
01 - Scarred 5:59
02 - Howling At The Moon 5:10
03 - A Nightshade Symphony 5:24
04 - Wings Of Gold 7:15

hi Jason! your band rules.

 

[Oak Knoll]

I just heard from Cor that Solemnus might be reforming.. this is truly GREAT NEWS!!

 

[Withersoul]

that IS great news... I wonder if we could hand number the cds... limited is gooooooooood..

 

[Oak Knoll]

So this split is on hold just so we can have Chad from TLF redo the drums for mid Feb- so the release date will be mid March.

 

[Crenshaw]

LOVE the Living Fields.!

 

[Oak Knoll]

So Jason was saying the drums might not be ready by February.. now I have to decide if we will wait till the drums can be done or not. I still want to release this split

 

[Withersoul]

is this still happening or did it die off?

 

[Oak Knoll]

It's happening.. the artwork is almost done..
it will press after the DF/AM split, probably May

 

[Oak Knoll]

I got Cor to send us liner notes - Jason is just working on that after he gets some free time (good luck on your new house jason!)

 

[Oak Knoll]

got the artwork/layout from Jason- looks killer.. will post soon!

 

[Oak Knoll]

just waiting on the final artwork, I'm still interested in releasing this.
