This post is a little late in coming, (I took a short vacation over the last week) but I finished recording the lead vocals for the 27 minute plus Final Dissent a couple of weeks ago. I have also been spending a fair amount of time mixing the song, which is no small task – trying to keep a consistent sound over 27 minutes of music of various tempo, volume, and tone changes requires a fair amount of juggling. The good news is that the mix is very close to completion, and I’ve been working on the harmony vocals as well, so the song (and therefore the album) is nearly complete!

On a more somber note, and as I’m sure many of you have already heard, we were saddened to hear of the passing of Yes drummer Alan White, and extend our sympathies and prayers to him and his family.

May his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
