The work continues

Ahhh...what a great feeling! We are in the midst of rehearsals for our new CD and are currently working on our 37 minute epic, "The Discoverie of Witchcraft". We have been approaching it section by section (essentially 4 long convoluted instrumental variations of a signature riff, and 3 pastoral sections with vocals and 4-part keyboards), and are at the 28 minute mark. I am happy that the band has the discipline and the motivation to tackle something this unwieldy (and so easily denigrated!), but not only have we sunk our collective teeth into it, we are having a blast doing it.

We only have one section left and one other tune to do and we can hit the studio running. Aaron has a knee operation in January so we will record about 3/4 of the album before then and the remaining sections after he is back on his feet again. Our target date to record is January 4-14th.

On others fronts, Francis Dupuis is doing a great job putting our design together. At this rate we will have a package ready to go by the spring!
