  • Devils of Belgrade Album is FINISHED

    EDIT: The CDs are pressed! Orders are being taken via a button on our MySpace page. If you want one, click the big ol' album cover in this post (or the link in my sig) and then hit the "Buy Now" button on the page. If you get a security popup from MySpace, just click "Yes..." as it's only taking you to PayPal. The album is $8.00 US.

    Ps. Mods - if this is too spammy, just tell me and I'll edit.

    ---

    For those who don't know, Devils of Belgrade is my instrumental Stoner/Thrash band from Indianapolis, and we just finished our debut album Tracks of the Cloven Hoof!

    <--- Ridiculous album cover

    I am so excited. I'm really happy with how it turned out, and extremely glad we decided not to go with the typical brick wall / triggered drums / scooped guitar method of modern metal production. The end result is a much more organic-sounding album in my opinion. It's not perfect and there are probably some things I'd change given more time, but at some point you have to be done and move on. Overall I (and the rest of the band) are quite proud of it.

    If interested, check our myspace page to listen to the first of nine tracks - called "Swirling Frozen Doom" to get a taste of the record.

    Guitar-wise, we used all kinds of cool stuff on this album. Featured in the sample track are a 1967 Martin acoustic and a 1960's Rickenbacker 12 string, along with the usual suspects of VHT, Bogner, and Splawn tones... I'll try to answer any specific questions about the recording that I can.
    Thanks for listening!

    Ps. Two things to note:

    Just throwing this out there - we're letting demand dictate our production and starting with an extremely limited run of two hundred discs. If anybody wants one, PM me to preorder.

    Also- the album is FINISHED. While I welcome ALL comments about everything including the mix and mastering job, know that it's past the point of change. Thanks again!

    I can't check out the tracks at work (myspace block) but I'll check it out what I get home. PLEASE tell me that you got your logo inspiration from this!!

    As soon as I saw "Devils" I though of Castlevania. MAN I LOVED THAT GAME!

        Any difference between tracks listed in italics and those in regular font? (This is not me being a joker -- I'm just curious.)

              Man that's some killer stuff right there, the 1minute mark where the lead starts to run and goes a little chromatic reminded me of Between the Buried and Me and then the half time that starts around the 2minute mark with the melody playing reminded me of some Darkest Hour. That's some good stuff man, I sent you dudes an invite through the Myspace, waiting to hear some more.

                Thanks, man! Those are some pretty crazy bands to get comparisons to, even if it's just in little pieces. I def. appreciate the kind words.

                As soon as someone logs into our myspace (I can't from work) you'll be added right away, though I think for the moment the best way to hear more of the music is to preorder the CD!

                Or, you know, wait for it to show up on BitTorrent.

                  Lol they were the first bands that came to mind when I heard those parts. I'll keep an eye out for the pre-order information on your myspace, whenever we get these rebate checks I wouldn't mind getting a copy.

                    By "preorder" I just mean "send me a PM so I can hold a copy back for you."

                    I'm not taking any money from anyone until we have the CDs back from the presses, and that could be as early as today or tomorrow.

                          man i have been WAITING for your stupid album since i joined practically! i deff want one! the album cover is very fitting, but you should have stuck with the green-scale theme that was previously on your myspace (maybe its still there i havent checked).

                          congrats man. i'm a fan

                            I freakin' love it, Adam. That cover is one of the best I've ever seen. It's a shout to the classic CRGPs - Ultima, Might and Magics, Dungeons and Dragson. Really supports and lives up to the wicked music. Production is EXTREMELY listenable. Stellar!
