Dead Cult Diaries omin sanoin

Hi!

What's up guys? We're working with some new tunes at J-V's place, some kick-ass rock n roll with catchy choruses!
We've also been rehearsing for the live shows on spring 2010. The set-list is coming together quite well and you're going to get the tightest playing Dead Cult Diaries ever! The dates will be announced somewhere around January!

Terve!

It's been a while since the last post. We have had some time off but now we are back in business. Yesterday we started to check out new riffs & ideas with RD. Again I can say it feels awesome!
Let's see if we could make some shows later on this year maybe soon or a bit later. But more on that when there's more to tell. Can't wait that!!
Last time when the whole band has been in the same room same time was before the recording sessions.. So now when new songs are coming it's time to get back rehearsing them & live set. And maybe partee a bit!
Sooo, new videos are coming soon!

Kippistä vaan!

Ready steady

Hello!

Mixing is now done. Which is nice. We have to do few changes and then master the whole shit together. So if everything goes well songs should be in myspace at the end of this week. Let's hope so! I'll put some video soon.

Kippis!

Studio

Mornin'!

I can't sleep cause there are too much noise here.. So now I have time to edit one video from yesterday's studio session. @ these sessions we are recording three songs. Juuso did all the drums and we played rhythm guitars with RD. Actually I'm really suprised we did that much because we had to search the right sound etc. for all the instruments. But it's nice, less stress today then.

Hey folks!

So we had our first gig on last Friday and we want to thank all who were there, you rocked! The night was awesome and we'll add some photos and videos asap. On the following weeks we're focusing on the upcoming recording sessions and the songs can be heard by the end of June. We're also having couple of new songs we're working on, so we're keeping ourselves busy.

Keep on rocking!

The day after the day after!

Howdy,

the new tune will be a killer! It's maybe the darkest song we've ever made but it still has some quite catchy melodies and I'm waiting anxiously to hear what kind of vocal-lines Emmi will lay on the song.

Something new

Hellllllll - o!

What has happened recently... Although we have to practice for the studio / first show we can't keep our fingers away from new shit. So Wednesday we had sessions with R-D and came up with a new song. Or better to say a new idea for the song. We made this rough version with drums, guitars at my hellish "home studio". Next step would be recording and testing big variety of different "things" and of course recording vocals so we know really what the song will sound like. It feels like we come up with good songs at the moment! :)
Next time we will have rehearsing sessions at Sunday MORNING!! I can't remember if I have ever been rehearsing at morning time. This could be interesting. I mean mornings aren't good time for musicians. Or at least I imagine so.. I'll probably be really awake when we finish up our sessions.
Well maybe some Red Bull can give me enough energy to survive that morning.

The Beginning

Morooooo!

Tervetuloa Dead Cult Diaries -bändin blogiin!
Kerromme omin sanoin bändimme tekemisistä ja kikkailuista. Tällä hetkellä teemme biisejä ja valmistaudumme ensimmäistä nauhoitussessiota varten. Välissä pitäisi ensimmäinen keikkakin heittää. Siitä se sitten lähtee ja katsotaan että minne!

Eilen tuli taas reenailtua tuota keikkasettiä. On aina mukava soittaa treeneissä settiä kokonaisuutena läpi eikä vain biisejä satunnaisesti. Kyllähän tuo yhteissoitto rupeaa pikkuhilja löytymään! Kukaan ei juonut edes kaljaa reeneissä.. johtuukohan siitä sitten tuo soiton tiukkus, tiedä häntä. Olemme aikaisemmin viettäneet paljon hikisiä tunteja uusien bisiien kanssa ja tosiaan tuolla kesäkuun alkupuolella pitäis sitten vääntäytyä studioon nauhoittamaan kolme kipaletta. Enpä muista milloin olisin niin paljon säätänyt biisien sävellysten ja sovitusten kanssa mutta kyllä se tuntuu sen arvoista olevan! Porukalla tosiaan noita kipaleita sävellellään. Aikaa on kulunut paljon kaikenlaisiin testauksiin sun muihin ja kai sitä ollaan tapeltukkin enemmän tai vähemmän mutta kaikkihan on tärkeää lopputuloksen kannalta. Kaiken pitää mennä DCD suodattimen läpi. Nyt ei kyllä malttaisi tuota studiota enää odottaa mutta pakkohan se on. Studiosta myöhemmin sit enemmän. Tämän viikon ohjelmaan kuuluu laulupuolen nauhoittelut/sävellys. Pohjat kaikista biiseistä ollaan jo väsätty joten laulujen testailu on mukavan leppoisaa hommaa koti"studion" uumenissa. Katsotaan mitä saadaan tänään aikaan! Kuvia ja muuta kivaa videosäätöä laitellaan sitä mukaa kun niitä otetaan.
