Update on Twentieth Century Apprenticeship
I've had a productive weekend working on the new EP. For now, I think I have the song lineup set, though there's one song I'm thinking about cutting and replacing with something new. Regardless, we're seriously very close to the first release on Next Best Records. I need to touch up the recordings on one or two songs, then mix everything and finalize the artwork. Perhaps we'll have CD's by the end of February, but the first week of March is probably a better estimate.
To whet your collective appetite, I've had a demo for "Nightlight"--the song that will close the EP--posted on my MySpace page (complete with lyrics!). "Nightlight" is a semi-humorous take on a number of topics, including the media, Ohio, songwriting, and post-post-modern existentialism. The demo version actually is pretty close to the final version. Let me know if you think the vocals should be louder in the mix (seriously).
