Nice! I agree with your cat on the issue at hand. Did you also draw your avatar? I like the style of it.

Didn't draw my avatar, no. I wish I could.

Yes. It will remain so, probably until an album comes out.

Is there much pressure when working on a new record ?

Marcus: The only pressure on us when we're recording music is from ourselves. If you let the fans or the record company start to apply pressure on you, your music would suffer. So we just keep away from everyone and get on with jamming and writing, and after a while a record comes out of it. Mike: That's precisely one of the most important things about us as a band. We hate listening to perfect music, and one of the things we strive to do is to damage the sound in such a way that the listener can't tell what time-period the music comes from. We have a lot of techniques for this, such as obvious things like adding drop-outs, wobble, filtering, scratches, flutters, as well as a few secret recipes. The damaged sound adds a character that you can associate with an imaginary and distant time or place. It's like a barely controlled chaos, it's always on edge, threatening to fall apart, just like the best music of the past, before everyone started using computers to sanitise and sterilise music in a cold and clinical way..

Makes me feel bad for making music with my computer but i'm poor and it's all i have :(


As a side note, i do love how all the stuff from the old tunes volumes sounds so shitty. Makes me wonder if its all as old as it sounds or maybe.....

It definitely is... it was recorded with shitty analog equipment and on old cassettes recorders. And I'm fairly poor too but a cheap tape recorder and a few instruments is all you need really.
