Evergrey Posts Studio Update

Evergrey frontman has posted an update from the studio. Commented EVERGREY frontman Tom S. Englund: "Another week of pure fuckin' metal mayhem has begun!

"Anyway. I finished all the guitar parts I had left for the first eight songs, and it all went so much smoother than I ever could have imagined.

"I have to explain this for you first: When we write songs for an album, we do just that, we do not rehearse them before we record them , so everyone is pretty much just rehearsing by themselves. We are sending files back and forth and of course there are LOTS of discussions. I don't know why we have chosen this way of getting it done but it has its pros and cons. For instance, it is hell to sit and try to pick put what the hell you're playing but at the same time writing like that makes it all much more fresh and spontaneous. The real problems come whenever we will start to rehearse the songs for tours when NO ONE have played them together with anyone. Maybe we're stupid. We have been working like this since 'In Search of Truth'. Too lazy to jam it out, hehe.

"Today Henrik's [Danhage] doing guitars for a song called 'Fear' and probably continuing with drums on a new song called 'Numb'. On Monday we will start writing again for 10 -15 days, to finish the last couple of ideas for songs we have.

"It's pretty cool since we haven't listened to those ideas at all since before we started the recording. That really should bring some objectivity."
