To-Mera demo track now online

[Lee_B]

Here's the first track from the upcoming To-Mera demo.

It was recorded in a rehearsal room in Kingston and mixed by Brett from Tower Studios (www.towerstudio.net). He's done a great job!

Anyway, enjoy (or not, as the case may be.. )!

Now, do more.

BTW, any ideas where you're going to send it yet?

The usual suspects, I suppose. We'll just have to see who bites. Earache have the first option as Julie's still "officially" under contract, but it's not the sort of thing they usually do, so...

 

[YaYo]

Nice song, certainly doesnt sound like a demo. I wish i could record to that quality in my rehearsal room!

Good work guys (and gals!) \m/

Not elitist then?

I thought it had enough of an avant garde feel at times, but then maybe you want a bigger budget!

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Naaah, Lee knows how Elitist treats its bands, he doesn't want that for himself

Sounds really good, that guitar solo and some other stuff really reminded me of Aghora. Anyway, sounds very good, not like a demo at all (nicely done, Brett!). Did you compose this, Lee?

Yay, Aghora !!! Thanks so much, I was searching for this, you know, like thinking "Man, this makes me think of one band that I know but I can't find out which one". I agree !

Sounds good, guys... Julie, your voice sounds terrific there. Lee, be honest now, where did you pinch that riff that crops up round the 6.10 mark? Dissection springs to mind but I don't think it's them...

As someone who's been itching to hear To-Mera since I joined UM, I must say that this is a glorious day. This song is definitely worth the wait, and I've got a new favorite band.

edit:
by the by, will you guys be pressing copies of your demo, and if so, will you make it available for purchase?

Thanks! Glad you like it. Good to see you back here by the way. You seemed to disappear for a while there

We'll be pressing the demo to just 200 copies for labels and magazines only, but I'm sure something can be arranged . We'll be doing a limited run of shirts too (maybe 25 or so).

We just got a preliminary mix for the other song "Born of Ashes" and that should be available to download very soon, so check back here about the same time tomorrow. That song's a bit faster, and a touch more "epic"

I'm definitely glad to be back! I've had such a busy summer, between working on the house and at Subway I've scarcely had time to spam on SOT! As soon as school starts I'll be making my comeback, so fear not.

At any rate, I certainly hope something can be arranged, because I wanna be the first kid on my block to have To-Mera's demo. A t-shirt would also be nice. I'd do nigh anything for 'em so if you think of something (money, a box of cereal, etc) fire me an e-mail please. Thanks!

Here's the second (and final) track from our demo entitled "Born of Ashes". Comments are more than welcome.

Oh man how I dropped when you made that lip fingering thingy Lee!!
At the final minute of Born of Ashes. Awesome!
...at least it sounded pretty much like it.

hehe. It saved having to learn a bass solo

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

hahaha, you can thank me for that Lee, I'm sure you wouldn't have dared to suggest such a trick to get you out of this troublesome solo, lol

Actually "the lips" first made an appearance in 1986 on my first band Chainsaw Enema's demo tape

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Haha, I knew this was a long time training, no one can get this good at this without years of experience !!! Especially in like, what, one or two takes only ! Where can we find that demo tape ?
