Studio Confessions from the Heart of the Metal Storm – Drummer Petteri Shares Insight:
“Thrashing in the studio with Bloodride…
All drum- and rhythm guitar tracks done, it´s time to focus on solos, vocals and the secret ingredients. Those being the extra guitar- and-what-not noises. And some backing choirs, in this case shouting and growling by angry men. Lots to do, still rewriting some lyrics, because there are cases of a song having too much lyrics and on some other song has a bit too little. All about balance and artistry…NOT! Just the fact that even these songs must be adaptable for live shows and it´s not fun to stumble on lyrics. More studio updates coming, as we slowly but surely proceed…”
Stay tuned for more updates from the studio as BLOODRIDE continues to craft their next thrash masterpiece.
