Try Marzen, Not Dunkles
I got a call early Monday morning from old Baltimore roommate Mike Ferenczy. Too early even for him to be drinking, I curiously answered the phone. Mike and Mel were coming back from a Disneyworld spring break vacation and missed a connecting flight - so they were stuck in Atlanta until their rescheduled departure that night! I picked up my surprise guests from the airport and spent the afternoon showing them around the city. We drove downtown near Coke and CNN, and then checked out some homes straight out of Southern Living magazine. If you take Peachtree Street to Peachtree Battle and take a right on Northside Drive, you'll pass a ridiculously enormous house on your left - it has a putting green surrounded by a moat in the front yard. After a tour of PC and dinner with a friend of Mel's at Gordon Biersch, it was a teary-eyed goodbye. Mike says he'll rate the trip with his patented giraffe system in a future update to this site.
Aphelion will definitely be up next Monday, barring any more surprise visits. I've decided to call it quits on recording after this - the demo production has been delayed for too long, and one more song won't tip the scales. Okay Samurai already created a great full song to round out the album in Mosquito, so that will be the final track. The music section will go through some changes soon to reflect the new stage name and style. A few people have asked if I'll ever record a full rock version of Monochroma. The "Bloody Tears" theme has actually been made into several rock remixes before, one of the best being this one.
