Gorefest Post Video From The Studio

By jason

GOREFEST's webmaster has checked in with the following studio update:

"There it is. Another clip of the recordings. Boud did some riffage, speedpicking and grooving magic on his Les Paul. From what I heard it's quite a heavy song, and one of the fastests on the album. This time there were no crashing computers so Boud did record some actual takes(as shown in the clip). Check it out here."

In addition, drummer Ed Warby has filed the following repotz:

"Spent most of the day at the Excess studio's working on vocals with JC, and had the privilige to hear some of the lead work being done by Mr B. One very intricate lead in the imaginatively titled GF1, a brutal bit of chaos hreddery in GF2, some twinnies and a majestic multi-layered piece in GF4. Impressive stuff so far!

The vocals are coming together nicely as well; we're still piecing together lines and words for a few songs, but we're almost there. 2 more to go that really need a lot of work, the other ones are close to finished.

It's cool how the stuff we have still suprises me every time I hear it. I find myself thinking 'Is this us? Holy fuck!' Unless we mess everything up in the final stages (which we won't of course, but just for argument's sake) this is going to be a fucken monster indeed.

I was at the studio again briefly today and was treated to some more lead/melody stuff. One bit I heard was gorgeousness and gorgeousity rolled into one, followed by a furious wah attack; this'll definitely blow you guys' socks right off. Boud seems to be going for some less obvious sounds and parts, which is creating some very interesting mood and colour changes in the songs. I think headphone fanatics are gonna have a great time listening to this album!"
