RELEASE THE MASTER


I've been living at Cardiac studio, on and off, for about 6 months. I've lost all semblance of a social life. My only friends these days are my recording engineer and the studio owner. But what we've been working on makes it all worth it i believe. Once it's done, that is. I've kind of taken not a new direction in songwriting and arrangement; it's more of a transcendent direction. The songs themselves are more personal, more of an interpretation of my experiences.
The album is about 90% done. Although I have not yet even begun to think about labels or any of that business shit, I did come up with an album title the other day finally. For the last several months EVERYTHING was a potential album title. There was "Bring the Slum" and "Filament" and a slew of others. Now that the songs are coming together as a cohesive unit i've settled on on a name: "Release the Master."
