So it begins!
The demo sessions for the next full length album are done, and we now have 20 songs to choose from! The total duration of all the new songs is 1h 23m of extremely Vortech-y stuff! The next step for us is to start picking the songs for the album (10-11 total probably) and working on the song order. This time there is no central theme to the lyrics, so what we are planning to do is to split up the album in two "sides", with some ambient stuff inbetween. Then Mikko and me (Juha) will write lyrics to one side per person. Let's see what this results in! All in all, the songs remind me a lot of the experimental edge of Wasteland, and the scifi melody and speed of Posthumanism! Very nice! Of course, with 20 songs to choose from, there will be lots of leftovers this time. We will see what happens with them - perhaps a special release of non-album tracks in digital form? And here are the working titles of all the songs now, in alphabetical order: Battling with a Lion Blast Radius Decay to Static Disconnect From the Void Arise Ghosts of Existence Industrial Complex Internal Poison Neolithic (The Darkness Is Born) Oceans of Steel Predictable End Proximity Quantum Dissolution Signal Loss Singularity Strength In Numbers The Empty Vessel Toxin Release Underutilized Within the Fog Stay tuned! Perhaps I will post a full demo song soon...
