"First,
it’s to say that nobody in the band
is really satisfied with the end
result, the guitar, bass and drum
parts have been recorded in one
session, this usually adds grit
and groove to the tracks but the
mistakes are too audible. On the
other hand we had not been playing
together by a long period back then,
and we are not seeking fucking useless
excuses, but if a few rehearsal
sessions had been taken beforehand
the result would have been surely
better… And if there has been a
few tranquilasers in studio, well,
some guitar licks would sound far
better! But the things worked out
that way, there was not any time
to waste, and also in studio we
got only three hours also to record
the tunes. Still, I pretty liked
the songs, they might be a little
too eighties oriented but there
are a bunch of good ideas along
the errors, either with the strum
and with the vocal line, the last
are particularly gripping and powerful,
I dare to say. Welcome
to the target was an
old Omega tune,
half NWOBHM half punk rock with
the solo cut in two upon the Teso’s
original, The
sorceress was written
for another band, then I bring it
in, Stefano and Luca helped me to
find a right middle session, the
first version lacked of it completely.
Same again for To
live or to survive,
another old song, I like the contrast
between the slow verses and the
fast chorus. Moon
of skull is dedicated
to E.M. Thomas book “The reindeer
moon” a song packed with fast, aggressive
riffs, even minimal but effective
sometimes, I remember writing music
and lyrics in less than a quarter
of an hour... Moreover, nothing
is to say with the studio job of
the man after the consolle, great
ability and great patience too.
But, maybe the next… "
