The New Album Thread

[Doogie_Brian]

So, is no news good news?

 

[Kenneth R.]

probably means they're very busy recording awesome album #2

 

[Matt Smith]

Check out my new toy:

Sounds awesome so far; very tight with tons of low end and nice definition. Can't wait to tweak some more. Here's a short clip I recorded last night.

Sounds very nice Matt......Good stuff ! Makes me look foward even more to the next album!

 

[Kenneth R.]

that looks heavy

nice shirt too.

 

[SeaStorm]

nice shirt too.

Absolutely! I was happy to see that. One of my top 5 albums. I finally got to see it performed in it's entirety during their last tour. What a treat.

BTW, if anyone is going to see Rhapsody (w/ Manowar) on their first US tour, I am too. Unfortunately, they are coming nowhere near Minnesota, so I have to roadtrip to Cleveland to see them. To bring this post full circle back to Queensryche, I actually have to hit the road immediately after I see Priest/Queensryche to head to Cleveland. Fun summer

 

[Nightmare1z]

Yeah, I'm going to the Manowar/Rhapsody/HolyHell show here in Atlanta on June 7th. I might be wearing a Theocracy shirt, but I might wear something else as well. We'll see!

 

[Webpoacher]

Ha! Finally got my Theocracy two days ago, took a little longer due Derons mini vacation but what the heck. It's my first original cd I bought in years!

UPDATE

 

[crimson sacrifice]

Got any soundclips with all the instruments?

 

[crimson sacrifice]

Augh! I got the videos saved, but I can only get visuals, not audio.

 

[dwellceller]

Nice little update Matt! .....Keeping us eager all the more for the final product. Sounds like great stuff so far!

 

[Snert]

Yes, sounds very good! Thanks for the (too ) short teaser!

 

[Der Schriftsteller]

Uuuh nice!
But I hope that's not the heaviest and fastest song on the new CD.

 

[Matt Smith]

It is. The other songs are all acoustic ballads.

 

[Sethist]

Yeah, the others are mostly Neal Diamond and Englebert Humperdink cover songs...

 

[SeaStorm]

Wait, would it be wrong if I liked Neal Diamond? Because I do. One of the perils of growing up in the late 70s/early 80s and having a mother who played lots of easy listening records!

We'll let it slide this time

 

[Snert]

I have listened to the small video snippet again and again and I love the sound!
The instruments sound like they should, the production/mixing already sounds awesome!
I can't wait to hear more!

 

[Matt Smith]

Thank you. Yeah, that was just a quick mix I threw together for the preview. That feedback is encouraging though, as I have worked ridiculously hard and increased my production knowledge tenfold since the first album.

Now here's hoping I don't screw it all up somehow...
