It’s been a while since we’ve been able to get any recording done as Rob has been relocating and setting up his studio, but this weekend we got some great drum tracks laid down for another song from the upcoming Falling Edge album. This one took a little longer to record because of its atmospheric quality, and Rob admits to have been somewhat out of his comfort zone (and glad to be there) with this style of song.
We now have drums recorded for 3 of the 6 songs that will appear on the next album, and with Rob’s studio now in place, things should move a little quicker. Our current plan is to get the 2 shorter songs done 1st before tackling the mammoth 27 minute long epic, as that one will inevitably present some challenges to its completion.

It is with great sadness that Rob and I received the news of Neil Peart’s untimely passing.
Neil was not just a great drummer, he was a great musician and played every part with stunning musicality, not to mention his unrivaled lyrical prowess, which in itself was somehow musical. I’ve been inspired and influenced by him both as a composer and guitarist, and I know Rob found great inspiration in his playing. His contribution to modern music simply cannot be overstated. Thank you Neil for the time and sacrifice you put into your craft that those of us you didn’t even know would be so greatly enriched.
Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace.
