An update from Cartel can be read by clicking read more.
Well, we're currently holed up in an apartment in NYC playing Call of Duty Zombies. It is quite the time machine. Other than finding new ways to pacify our boredom we've been hard at work on a new album. We officially "broke ground" mid-April to get a jump on all the preliminary work because we had 6 shows over the last few weekends that month. After Bamboozle, which was amazing I might add, we came back to the city with a few days off to recover from the fray (not the band). Yesterday was the first day of non-interrupted work from here on out. That is to say that we don't have any more shows to play between now and the completion of recording. As it stands now we have 2 songs about 90 - 95% in the books as far as music is concerned with vocals yet to be done and we'll start tracking #3 on Monday. We feel as though a song by song recording method helps us stay "in the moment" and allows us to dig a little deeper for the best features to add. All that was terribly cliche but it's all I've got at the moment. We anticipate an early fall release with little teasers of songs or what not to start flowing in the summer. We hope this finds you well and expect another update soon.
One Love
