Studio Updates From Elyse

Local metal act Elyse have posted some updates from the studio as they record their first full length. The album is set to be nine to twelve songs with a tentative release date of November 4th. The album is brutal throughout, metalcore with hardstyle synth. The band had this to say:

Just heard the demo track of one of our songs for our album coming out in November, and you guys might not be able to handle it.

 

It’s going to sound as professional as anything else you would buy in a store.

Elyse also wanted to mention that their bassist has one hand. If you think you can handle Elyse’s live performance you can check them out this Sunday at Black Sheep along with bands Vengeance, Trepidus, and Tormented Faith.

Battalion Finishing Recording for Second EP

Battalion have recently finished recording for their second EP entitled “Resilience.”  The EP still needs to undergo mixing and mastering and will likely be released before the end of the year.  Guitarist Josh Masten had this to say:

Hitting the studio with Battalion is proving to be the best decision ive made this year, can’t wait to show the world.

Some earlier Battalion demos can be heard on the band’s soundcloud page.

Emperor Norton Recording in BXS/Exclusive Track Debut

Over this past weekend, Springfield skate thrash outfit Emperor Norton set up shop and recorded a demo. They spent the day tracking the 12 song demo, which I think clocks in under 10 minutes (don’t quote us on that). Emperor Norton’s Twitter page kindly supplied some pictures of the good times.

As the great dudes they are, Emperor Norton has decided to let us exclusively stream one of the newly recorded songs. Listen to the track “Hide Your Kids, Hide Your Socks” below:

Emperor Norton is playing this Saturday at Tin Can Pub. Scott Blacula is releasing their demo at the said show. It starts at 11pm, and is $5. Want more info of Springfield shows? Check out the Springfield show page.
