As this site becomes archived, we are uploading all music put out by Forsaked Truths on the music page.
[Top] Time For Update (November 11, 2003)Two samples of the upcoming album release has been placed on the Music page in the Media section. Let us know what you think.
[Top] Metal Head Radio (September 15, 2003)Once the demo has been completed, the album will be copied for sale through the Metal Head duplication factory. Before that can be done though, a singer needs to be recruited, which is where the band is right now.
Three of the early demos of the upcoming Forsaken Truths album are now in rotation on Metal Head Radio. To access the internet radio site, just click the link at the bottom of every page.
The final vocal tracks were recorded and cleaned today, leaving only bass left to record. Once bass is recorded for songs 8 - 10, those song can be mixed, and then the mastering can be done for the album.
ForsakenTruths.com is officially launched today. Feel free to use the contact section to email the band or the forum section to post anything you want. More content will be added to the site once the album is finished. Check back often for more updates.
Although one more overdub may be added, for all intensive purposes, the guitars are finished with recording. All of the drum tracks and guitar tracks have been cleaned as well. While no bass was recorded this weekend, the vocals for the first song was done. These vocals are intermediary until we find a full time singer. The reason we are using intermediary vocals is to help increase our chances of air time and venues that we can play at.The majority of the vocal tracks may be recorded and cleaned by the end of the week. More updates as they come available.
The drums are finally done, and this time we mean it (you can only fit so much on one CD). There has actually been one more song made since the last update, so that is now 10 songs that will be on the album, all of which the drums have been record for. Since there will now be an hour of music, there is a good chance that the drum solo will be removed form the disc. If that is the case, expect to find some exerts of the solo on drumdrumdrum.net .Now that the drums are done, the last of the drum tracks will have to be cleaned, which will be done by the end of Friday. Guitar's only have to record for this one last song and get cleaned for this song, and songs 8 and 9. That should be taken care of by the end of Sunday.Then it is on to bass which needs to be recorded for three songs and then cleaned. And of course, we still need a singer, but if a full time member can not be found, some substitution will be made. Expect to see another update on Sunday or Monday.
The decision has been made to continue working on the demo until it is a full length album. Most of the writing has already been finished for it, with the near completion of the last two songs. The only parts left to write are lyrics and guitar solos. Drums should begin recording for this in about a week. The other parts will record after the drums finish.The group is still working on getting a session vocalist to record on the demo. And of course, we are really looking forward to the possibility of playing shows before the summer comes to an end.
Well, it has been one month since the last update on the demo, so here is where it stands. All of the drum, rhythm guitar, solo guitar, and bass guitar tracks have been recorded. Effects have been selected for the tracks, a rough mix has been created, and all of the recorded tracks have been edited and cleaned up.As of right now, the band is looking at getting a session vocalist to sing on the demo, and maybe play a few shows down the line. Once the vocals are recorded, they can be edited, cleaned, and then the final mix can be created.The band has also been working on creating another two songs. The first of which has been in the works for a few weeks now and breaks 10 minutes. The second was just started yesterday and looks like it will be under or around 5 minutes. In addition to that, Sean has also recorded a new drum solo. It basically combines his old drum solo with lots of new stuff at the beginning. The solo is about 9 minutes long.
The demo for the Forsaken Truths album has entered the recording stages. The drums began recording on Monday and should finish by Friday/Saturday. After that, a few weeks will be spent on recording the other instruments, and roughly two weeks for the mix down.The demo will feature all of the so far seven songs written by Forsaken Truths. It is expected that the total run time of the demo will be somewhere around 35 minutes. More info as it comes.
Forsaken Truths shows at Fox went fairly well. The group did a very good performance for the first show, despite the fact that it was a very small crowd. Kudos to Bob Miller and his dad for providing transportation and video taping. Without them, there would have been no show.
Forsaken Truths has an upcoming show. The concert will be on Friday April 25, in Lowell MA, at the Fox MPR (UMass Dorm, Residential North). The show starts at 7:00, and Forsaken Truths will be the first of four bands.
Sean has joined forces with Kevin Carr (Norseth, Unhallowed Visions) to form a new band called Forsaken Truths. As of right now, the tentative bass played is Jen Grimes (Unhallowed Visions). The group is currently looking for a lead vocalist for their progressive metal/melodic band. If anyone is interested and would like to receive more information, please email Sean through the contact page.
