I am fully endorsed by Bernie Rico Jr. and obviously love his guitars to death (and believe it they arent even the fully custom ones, they were just quick ones he put together for me so i cant wait to put my custom orders in!)

Ernie Ball has been very cool with me and i have sort of an unofficial deal with them as they understand that i dont play any one brand exclusively but they totally respect that and i love the crap out of their guitars and basses (stealth bongo 5 here i come!!)

And as you all are very aware i love me some Blackmachine, and although Doug doesnt offer endorsements (its not like he needs the advertising haha) im proud to own a few of his guitars and i should have a B7 ready in the next few months!

Thanks for clarifying this buddy. I'm glad that you are still able to jam on the BRJ because I thought it was very cool what he did to make that guitar in short notice for your Australia trip.

That alone makes me wish nothing but the best for Bernie and co.

(i too also still love my ibanez)

Dude apart from being one of the nicest most geniune people in the industry he also happens to make some of the best guitars i have ever played. Seriously these are some of the highest quality guitars out there, and im fortunate enough to be able to use them live!

It's being worked on. No ETA yet

[prh]

sick

and please turn a camera on every time one of you picks up a guitar, always top notch stuff

[Mwoit]

So when you and Misha jam, do you usually shotgun guitar and Misha does drums? Looks like a pretty cool way to write haha.

we dont usually do this, i just got a new recording computer and im using my rme fireface, meaning that i can play a nicely processed kit with virtually no latency meaning that jams like this can happen, i wish i had had this setup back when i had my td20 cuz that shit would have been epic.

anyways i have been a bit busy and i havent been writing a lot whereas jake has a shit ton of riffs he has been writing and sitting on, so we decided to jam em out and see how they sounded!

[technomancer]

Sounds like some promising stuff in there

You only recently got a computer that can do drums in realtime? Well no wonder you did all your previous drum programming with the mouse! RME has the best drivers in the business.

[Prydogga]

Calan/Isan/winner of comp. said the song was written, or at least lyrics. I haven't heard much of it since.


Also, Walk with new Spencer vocals not on his myspace anymore? :'(

[Isan]

Yea the lyrics are done...

Wrote them in a day :P

[Prydogga]

Then tell em to record the thing!

yeah, i mean i ran my mixes in realtime, that was fine, but playing on a keyboard or kit would mean some serious latency with all the processing i have on it in the mix.
though i still program with the mouse, i dunno i just prefer it for whatever crazy reason haha

@bulb

Is there any possibility of a re-record, re-release sometime in the near future with all new scream parts? Meshuggah originally recorded Nothing with 7 strings drop tuned and were never totally content with the results so they went back and retracked the guitars after they got their 8's. If Meshuggah can do it, Periphery can at least attempt (I'm not going to say Periphery CAN do it because Meshuggah are literally gods).

Please consider. Spencer seems willing since he retracked The Walk. This could be a quick job that would only help you guys.

[Customisbetter]

^Or they could continue working on new material. I dont see the point of redoing a bands first record. Especially one that is that good already.

[jaco815]

I agree that it's good. It's my favorite thing to listen to these days. But look how many people bitch about the screaming and how it's "not as brutal as Chris" etc. Not just here, but on Youtube, every other forum I've ever seen, and any sort of blog post someone has to comment on it. I think they should just do it to shut everyone up and win over some more fans.

[Customisbetter]

In all honesty, I'm sure Misha and teh guys could do it quite easily, but i still fail to see the point. They make music for fun (and money ) and last time I heard, Misha doesn't afraid of bitching forums or anything.

Damn you're playing all the drum parts with your fingers? I wish I had the coordination to do something like that

That's not going to happen, at least any time soon. We don't need to "win" anyone over, we're extremely proud of our first record and we don't really see any need to re-record the whole thing because of a couple of whiners who don't think Spencer is "kvlt" enough. The amount of stuff Spencer had to learn and adapt to when he joined this band is so extraordinary that I don't think anyone fully appreciates what he did and continues to do - also aside from some a couple songs Spencer wrote completely on his own - he had to learn and rewrite vocal melodies and arrangements that were already in place which were written by Tom, Misha, and Casey. Besides some lyrics Chris did very minimal work on that stuff.

Spencer re-recorded The Walk to show the band some stuff he was working on, that's it.

edit: This isn't really directed at you btw, just my thoughts on how many people try to bring these internet comments to my attention.
