How about a rough mix of one complete song? =)

You mean like "On Eagles Wings"? The one on their myspace?

I think he means one that is not completely finished on the mixing part, but still sounds ok. I'd love to hear a song too. But I understand if it's not a very good idea as they're looking for a label. Maybe the labels don't like when Theocracy are giving away material from their new album for free, before release. But I don't know, just a thought...

Just a quick update...
Mixes are going well! I've got around 1/3 of the album totally done now, and I'm really happy with the way it's come out. I'm getting tired of the thin, piccolo-sounding snares and inaudible bass on so many Metal releases today, so this album will kind of be a reaction to that. Fat snare, fat bass. But it's still very clear; I think it strikes a nice balance between size and clarity. Can't wait for you all to hear it!
We have a show Friday, so that will push things back a bit, but we should still be looking at 2 or 3 weeks, Lord-willing, for the album to be complete.

Thanks!

Thanks Matt....not long now !!!

Has a cover been done for the album yet ?

_Wes · August 20th, 2007, 11:22 AM

Very good news!!

Thanks Matt!

We had some early sketches done, but the primary label we're in discussions with is talking about art direction, etc. and seems willing to put a lot of time and effort into doing it right, so we're just kind of going to see if it pans out with them as hoped, and then figure out what to do about artwork.

Cool ....Thanks Matt !

Sounds like some serious thought is being put into new album cover....

I loved the cover for the 1st cd.

Axl Torn · August 25th, 2007, 02:26 PM

When can we get some Album info on the new record?
track list?
album name?..ect

Matt Smith · August 30th, 2007, 06:22 PM

It LOOKS like (Lord-willing, knock on wood, etc.) I should be done with the album on Sunday, September 9 (give or take a day or two).

Yeah!!

koffish · August 31st, 2007, 05:45 AM

I have been waiting for this album for a very long time. This fall/winter will be an awesome time for music. This new album, Rob Rock's Garden of Chaos and Iced Earth's Framing Armageddon. Matt, if you worked half as hard as you did on the last album, this new one should be the finest CD in my collection, until you come out with a new one of course!
