Studio Update: A Wilhelm Scream

Comments Off on Studio Update: A Wilhelm Scream

A Wilhelm Scream has recently updated their progress of their new album. Read more from their myspace post:

We’re finishing up the sequencing. It’s gonna be a 13 song joint this time. A few songs are over the five minute mark. They’re for the stoners. The vast majority of the record is fast. Very very fast. Actually, I think the whole thing’s fast. The other two songs we recorded will find their way to you in special ways after the record’s out. Those two songs aren’t that fast (comparatively) so they didn’t make the record. We really like them alot, so they will get released, but hey, they weren’t fuckin’ fast enough!! OK?! This one’s built for speed.

Anyway, we’re now compiling our ideas for artwork together and hopefully will be working with some particularly talented fellows soon to make our random ideas come to life. As fans of Mute Print and the Ruiner maybe could tell, we take the artwork very seriously (even though, as I’m told, nobody buys cds anymore! this shit true?!) and we put lots of effort and time and thought into making sure it goes way over most people’s heads! Avoid success!!! We’re going for a nice mix of both records’ art in style and tone, I think we really got it musically, which was the goal. We fuckin’ killed ourselves on this one to make sure we didn’t disappoint you guys, the ones who have come see us play live the past two years. These are “live” songs for sure. Some are very Mute Print-esque, some remind me of Smackin’ Isaiah, our biggest influence!

A Wilhelm Scream Studio Update

In a recent post by A Wilhelm Scream regarding their new album:

we’ve been in fort collins, colorado for almost a week now working on the new record. nick’s drums are done and bri’s almost done with his bass already and i gotta say they both sound fucking insane on this. {fans of bri’s previous bass work ain’t seen nothing yet.} me and chris worked with jason on guitar tones last night and we’re gonna start tracking today. the guitars are a bit more gain-y (or bad-ass, as they say) than the last two records, and alot closer to our live guitar tone. nuno might start singing today, we’ll see. we got here (blasting room) last week with 18 songs and we’re gonna do 15 this time. the other 3 will go on the next record for sure. bill says the songs are alot more “intense” sounding than the last two records. no title yet, but we’re working on it.

A Wilhelm Scream update

Here’s a recent post by A Wilhelm Scream as they prepare for their follow to 2005’s Ruinier:

So I haven’t been here in like two months, and I realized that we haven’t updated the news in two months either, so here’s an update on why you haven’t heard from us and might think that we’re dead. First of all we’re not dead. We’ve been at home in New Bedford writing our asses off and playing together almost every day. We just finished demoing the first 13 songs in the project studio in Trevors basement, and we’re currently working on a bunch of other songs. We figure to have around twenty to choose from for our next record.

Speaking of our next record, in case you were wondering, we are heading back to the Blasting Room to drive Bill and Jason completely insane once again in the beginning of May. So that will hopefully be out by the end of the summer (Or the beginning of summer depending on when when some fucktard leaks it.) “What about touring?” You might be asking yourself. Honestly I don’t know. We don’t currently have anything booked, but by the time we get out of the studio, I’m sure we’ll be eager to get out there and hopefully see the outer reaches of our beloved homeland again. (We realize we haven’t toured the U.S. in eight months so get off our back already, Europe and Australia needed some love too.) That’s all for now, good talking to you, see you soon. Go listen to Municipal Waste in the mean time.
