OVERDRIVE live DVD

This weekend we started rehearsing for the OVERDRIVE live-DVD which we will record at our show at the Baltic Sea Festival Thursday July 17 at the Karlshamn square main stage. We'll mix old and new tracks to try to please both old and new fans. Some of the tracks you'll hear are: Back On The Hunt, Overdrive, Dream Away, Fight To The Finish, Gravy Train, Bring Me To Submission, Deceived etc. There will be some nice surprises on stage, too.

I also finished the BALLS cover this weekend and it should be ready to send in a day or two. It's not the common metal/hard rock cover so I hope it will be well received. The album may speak for itself though ;-).

Mixed and ready!

The last couple of days we've been putting the final mixing touch on the new BALLS album. We also had a photo session in Falun (Fotograf Heléne) and funnily enough this was the first time the entire band were together. It's interesting that in this day and age you can write, record and mix an album without the band members even meeting. Anyway, it was quite a drive for me from Mörrum, 680 km to Björn's studio in Rättvik. I only took 6,5 hours (incl lunch, gas refill and peeing) and with a nice pile of CDs in the car it went smooth. The car I find being one of the best places to listen to music. On this trip I brought some good old Jethro Tull, Judas Priest, Kansas and Rory Gallagher mixed with some new stuff by Volbeat, Kursk and Grand Magus.

Right now I'm waiting for the download of the final mix of the album to finish. It sounded great in the studio :-)

Roger, over and out!
