The jolly trio all present!

A rare session today as all 3 of us were present, ha ha. I spent last night alone laying down locals for "Among The Wolves" and today we dissected that performance, made changes, added background vocals, harmony vocals and so forth..

We also sat down and went through all the songwriting credits for the album as Richard is in the midst of collaborating with the cover design in union with M.O.B:s very good friend Janne Kjellin.

A good day i must say. Tomorrow, ill be back in there, taking on the song "The Legacy". Cheers! /Fredrik


Peter sings like a choir boy!

Hey hoo and a bottle of rum!

Richard questions why he wont get to sing!?!
-Now WHO wrote that riff? Hmmm...

Vocals taking off and some chair adventures!!

So, time to do some singin´, eeehhh?! Yup, sure is! Peter by the computer, me trying to perform, the roles have changed! We started off today with "When All Is Said And Done", which is your basic rock tune really, nothing fancy or complicated about that one, just a nice groove and a lot of melody. I think it went ok. After rehearsing on my own for quite a few weeks, it feels great to have some input from someone other than myself, ha ha.. Peter seemed quite pleased afterwards and if he says it´s ok, then i say its ok i guess.

We also added some harmony vocals, sung by both me and Peter and they turned out quite nice if you ask me. "When All is Said And Done"  is in the bag, at least vocal-wise..

You know, Peter is quite a tall guy and after today´s session, we came to the conclusion that the chair we had by the computer really sucked and sitting in it for several hours really did a number on Peter´s back. So, what to do? Well, off to IKEA of course! Not the brightest idea on a saturday afternoon but we managed to complete the purchase within 10 minutes without seriously getting hurt or hurting someone else for that matter, we bought the office chair "Markus" and headed back to the studio where Peter assembled it in a flash. Great day! Ill be in the studio again tomorrow i think, working on another tune, cheers people, have a great saturday evening! /Fredrik and da Pete man.

Tea, water, chewing gum, lyrics, let´s go!

 Roaaaar!!
 Fire alarm nr 1!
 Peter finding vocal harmonies on da guitar.
 Oh yeah, lets get down!
Fire alarm nr 2!
 Oh no, arriving at IKEA, eeewww..
 Comfy, sir? No? Lets try another..
This is what we ended up with, 
our new friend MARKUS..

 Peter moving through IKEA like a scud missile,
me trailing along behind..
 Houston, we have a problem.. Naw, Peter 
knows his way around IKEA products, and the chair
is great!
Bye for now! /Fredrik, Peter and Markus.
