Ship

Not much to say about the last recording sessions which took place at Justin Gyurik's in Indiana, Pa. The night in breif went drive, arrived, hauled, sat, hauled, sat, hauled, sat, smoke, beer, smoke, haul, record, turtles, smoke, beer, smoke, beer, record, record, cat named Paul, smoke, play along to electric drum set demos, haul, drive.


But in more detail, we recorded two out of three of Shoff's(me) guitar parts for the three new songs. But after discussing with Chris the past few days, we came to the conclusion that we're not fully happy with the result. So re-recording will take place in the next few days. More photos from the day located below.



The writing process also continued this week, with a new song created. The only photo evidence I have of this, is a photo of Dereck, Chris, and Ed writing before my camera died. We plan on writing a few more songs then focus on mainly recording. If we do so, the record, I think, will sound great. Especially the new song, I am most excited for that one, i think. Probably the funniest one out of all of them. I hope you guys are excited as we are. Cause that's a lot of excitement.

The Times They Are A-Changin'

Chris Kupchella, Derek Gresh, Kevin Horvath, Jonathan Rager, Cory Shoff, and Brandon Shreve have separated from the band called Soundrive and created its own life as The Sunflower Spectacle. Thanks to 709 Railroad St., The Sunflower Spectacle have been writing and creating for the past few weeks for our first album, Too Anxious For Rivers, and have turned out some new songs, that have come together nicely. Chris, Kevy and Jonathon have been recording the older songs for the past couple months, with help from Justin Gyurik. They have all come together marvelously, and we are excited to get them mastered and out to everybody. So, this past Tuesday, we met up and got down to business. Well, after hauling one thing in at a time, then taking a breaking between hauls. But after Justin arrived, we got down to business.


Kevy started it off, and record the drum tracks for the new songs; all in one try. Kevy, who stated,"I'm better then Keith Moon!" re-recorded the drums for "Mean Mr. Time" with the already recorded guitar, bass and all that, which is nearly impossible. Kevy pulled it off with flying colors. Dereck was finally able to put down some guitar parts for the songs, but with the program acting strange, Spectacle packed it up early that night. We hope to have demos/un-mastered versions of a few of our songs up on our myspace soon. After several several weeks of writing, I guess you could say we're taking a vacation, well Chris is, anyway. Chris will been gone for a week and the Spectacles music will be put on hold for a week. When Chris arrives back in Pennsylvania, Spectacle will be back at it. I dont think we've ever been happier making music together and everything is working so well, its hard not to be excited. Here a few other photos from Tuesday.
