Yes, that’s right we just laid down the last two tracks for the upcoming album last night- a guitar solo and a guitar/analog delay feedback track for Alien Abduction. This means the next stage in the process is the portion we like to call “Drive Steve Crazy” which usually consists of mixing sessions where the band makes random suggestions that often contradict their last suggestions, random requests that an entire track be replaced by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, or the classic “make 50 remixes only to decide that the first one (made months ago) was really the best version”. The only way to remain sane here is to bring good whiskey and beer: a lot if it.
Onward Men!!!!!
I didn’t know if you were joking about the mixing ordeal of your albums. Have you guys ever thought of finding a way to catalog the different mixes? That way it wouldn’t get so redundant, and you wouldn’t be driving Steve nuts!!
Actually steve is doing preliminary mixes and we’re then fine tuning. So far the first two mixing sessions have been pretty efficient.
