The Absence New Album Details 2009-05-20 by Bullitt | 14 Comments | The New Record - Enemy Unbound
Hey there, As many of you know we are writing material for our up coming record. "Enemy Unbound"
I just wanted to clear the air for everyone. We were suposed to record in March.
The timing just wasn't right for us. We have been really looking at every song we have come up with very closely and trying to really make the songs as great as they can be.
We have finally booked the studio time. We will be entering Mana recording studios once again. The date as of now is set for September 10th.
I stated earlier this year that we had some Ideas to get the fans involved with the record. Well I guess its time to let the cat out of the bag. We have alot of fans that are guitar players. We thought it would be cool to let them show off the talents that they have. We are holding a contest for our fans to track a guest lead on our new record. We will be releasing the exact details on this contest next week. For now let me just give you the rough Idea of the contest. There will be a demo track section to a song that we will be releasing via-Internet that the fans will be able to download. They will then have to post the lead they come up with on youtube. We will be judging all the leads based on Originality, Melody and Technical ability. If you ask me I think thats pretty F'n cool.
I couldnt even imagine growing up and being able to track a guest lead on one of the records of the bands I listen to. Man, the internet is something special.
Anyway, Back to the record in progress. I have been busting my ass on protools for the last year. Staying up very late every night trying to really get these preproduction tracks together for us to analize. Dont get me wrong it still beats construction work.
The thing that we are noticing the most is how different all the songs are from each other. There will be a song that has an "Old Man's Child" feel to it. Then a song that has a "Metallica(and justice for all)" feel to it. I cant wait until people hear this thing. It is truly going to be something special. We will keep you posted.

Pretty bad ass imo.

sounds cool about the guest appearance thing, sounds very interesting, i hope its an improvement from ROTP, it got boring after a while.

these guys have good guitar leads
| | |
This kinda makes me want to learn how to play guitar.
Album should be amazing.
| | |
Patrick and Peter are great guitarists. I'll definitely be sending a lead in, will probably win.

They seem like they are honestly proud of this album, not just saying it.
| | |
doesn't their lead guitarist use that new 27 fret xiphos? that guitar is so cool.
| | |
ROTP was way better than FYG. hope this rules.
| | |
hey someone who agrees with me that ROTP is their best album!
my friend can win this contest easily. cant wait for the album
| | |
I agree about ROTP, i like it alot more.
| | |
Jizzed a little?
| | |
Maybe this will be good, unlike Riders of The Boring Fucking Plague.
| | |
Im excited for this. Their other albums were pretty good. I do enjoy Arsis a lot more though.
