HEVYDEVY FORUMS

Hey Everyone,

So, this band Delight is preparing to release their debut album thru Roadrunner Records in early 2007. I ended up recording the 14 songs for this album in early 2006. Producer, Rhys Fulber (Fear Factory, Front Line Assembly) hired me to record all the drums for the album. It's really cool and I'm happy with the way it turned out. It was actually the first recording I did with my new Pearl Reference Drumkit from my Pearl Endorsement..... the drum sound kicks ass too !!! Thanks to Shaun Thingvold's (Fear Factory, SYL, DTB, Terror Syndrome) engineering skills.

The drumming on the album is pretty straight forward stuff. Playing for the song. There are really cool beats and cool fills spread throughout the album though. You'll hear the RVP influence from time to time forsure.

The music itself is Hard rock music and very catchy. They have a great female vocalist with great melodies. I guess you could say they are Europes answer to Evanescence (in a good way), maybe a little heavier. You can decide for yourself after hearing it... check 'em out though, if you want to hear some RVP Session drumming. I think they are pretty cool and have a good shot at doing something big.

They put up an album track titled "Divided" on their My Space page. Here's the link :

Close to done, just getting all the guest appearances recorded (already have some guest appearances in) then mixing, then we'll be close to done....

I'd say early 2007......

It's gonna' be crazy !!!! I can't wait to release it !!!

RVP

Suh-weet. Can't wait to hear it. Not sure how the whole session muso thing works, but is there a reason their "drummer" (as listed on their myspace site) didn't do the job himself?

Perhaps he joined the band after the album recording?

You may be right!

Yup... Persuader is right. Plus they wanted a session guy for the album so they could get exactly what they wanted for their big label release. Rhys Fulber made that call.

Regardless, the album turned out awesome and everyone including the new Delight drummer is happy !!!

Ah ok, makes sense. If you're "between" drummers at the time you'd obviously be doing yourself a favour by getting a quality drummer (hehe, obviously pretty decent in this case ) to do the business in the studio.

Cheers, Ryan!
