fuzmeister: 359 Days Ago

---

I started writing and recording demos for the "new" record 359 days ago - nothing is fast in this world, is it?

fuzmeister: New Waive

---

After a brief hiatus from sending out demos every week to record labels, I am continuing the grind this week. I've got eight labels pending. I will say that it's getting tougher to find decent labels to send to - it's a shame we live in a world where art has to be commercialized to a degree to ever reach any kind of masses.

I don't mean the art itself must be altered, but we live in a world today where most bands and artists only release new material every couple of years and spend ages recording each album. The Beatles had more releases in their career than bands who have been around twice as long.

I guess I just think that if you're a musician, you should probably be writing music all the time. Same with writers, painters, etc. Though writer's block happens - even happens to those who aren't writers.

Mood: Intrigued

I just broke my B string after only changing all of them this past Wednesday. No more jamming tonight, I guess.

fuzmeister: Logo

---

Logos (as well as symbols) can have a very powerful impact on people depending on how they look. I'd be lying if I said MS Wingdings didn't impact me as a child. So I'm currently considering a very minimalist style of artwork for the upcoming (yet unrecorded in the studio) album NoVA. Essentially, any release associated with it would have some basic color scheme and a slightly off color logo with just the text describing the release. This would greatly contrast the photography Kyle did for Allusions To A God which were things you had to analyze more to maybe understand. I'm not sure what I'll do yet, but it's an intriguing option to consider.
