So we decided to scrap the homemade recording plan and take the decent sized pile of money from our streak of shows and put it towards some real studio time.  LAVOLA just recently finished up a track at Bieler Bros. and it was sounding right so we decided to try them out.  Took a tour down there and ended up booking two days (last Tuesday and Wednesday) straight out. 

Anyway, it went unbelievably; couldn't have gone better in fact.  We ended up finishing five songs after two loooong days of non stop tracking and mixing.  Matt and Ryan and Mark were awesome down there and the songs sound amazing.  Here's a short clip of Ben and Mike crushing the end of Been There.

We have to submit some recalls for a few minor level changes but other than that the EP is ready to go. We're still planning on releasing the songs with accompanying videos so that'll be the next project. Really excited to start getting these songs out though!

Tomorrow night we're back at Prop, and we're definitely stoked for it.
