Hey thanks, Jake! Hope you can make it out. Should be a great show. That's cool you're working with Code666. Emi's a really nice dude. He wanted to work with us to release our upcoming album, but the business situation for everyone involved got a bit precarious after SPV and Pinnacle filed for bankruptcy. Still, much respect for his roster, especially Negura.
yes we need a logo, but that recording is nothing, when we do a full on recording everything will sound 10X better! so the new split that coming out will be epic! -Michael
thanks, glad you liked the song! the next recording we are going to do is going to sound 10 times better because this is just a sample of what you are going to expect on the next split. and yes we will get a logo soon!
Hey thanks for accepting our request, we hope you like our music. See you on a Gwydion show! Our merchandise is available for sale, to order send mail to: shop@gwydion.org or do it in our myspace.
