Enter Mayhem

Well hell I've been away from blogging for so long, it's the tight schedule I guess. Yep Jai, I know what you're about to say..."Tight as a nun's ass!". Maybe...never felt one before:P

Right, since joining Leo Burnett/Arc Worldwide, I barely have any time for anything else that doesn't spell W-O-R-K. Thank God for the weekends, though, but as you might expect it's all reserved for rehearsals and gigs. So I basically haven't been getting any rest for the past month or so.

Anyway last weekend was Blood Legion's back-to-back gigs, at Paul's and at Giggers. Great shows guys, but I gotta admit we oughta put a cap on our drinking, actually MY drinking. On stage we were tight (AS A NUNS ASS!!!!) but the post-party got a little out of hand. Really sorry, boys. I swear it won't happen again. Anyway about the cap...can we be a little lenient on it? 1 can of beer the most? I promise I'll only touch the moonshine once we're done:D

The weekend was a good one 'cos 2 good things happened out of it. 1. We kicked major ass 2. we finally put our chicken sized brains together and said "that's it, we gotta record our material soon and it's gonna be on...".

So the dates were finally fixed! Alas our question of 'when to record' was finally answered, by ourselves that is. Anyway recording on the 13th and 14th seems like a swell idea. We'll have enough time to mix, finish the artwork and get it out before the As-Sahar gig. Well anyway, if you didn't know, As Sahar is a Singaporean/Malaysian Black Metal band which I've been following since I was a school kid. They went on a hiatus for a while and now they're back with a new album and a promo gig in KL on the 27th of December! So it would be the perfect place to distribute our demo knowing the fact that all the old school metalheads would be there to watch the gig. And of course, Blood Legion being an old school oriented band, we'd be glad to show them our stuff.

So the recording is two weeks away and I only have that much time to improvise on my bass lines AND finish off the lyrics to the 'Blood Legion' track (which till today, has got no lyrics, despite the fact that we've played it live couple of times. Thanks Shan, for being spontaneous on stage!).

Ah...I just can't wait to hit the studios! I'm nervous of course, but hey I can't be all the time or our songs will never see the light of day!
