sludgeFactory Music

I talked Zach into letting me put up one more unfinished song.

This is probably the last “freebie” from The Story of Polus and the last song you’ll hear until their album is released, but other demos from other bands should be up in the coming weeks so keep checking back!

Anyway, here’s “The Affair” - it’s not about what you think it’s about, so says Zach, so stay tuned for an explanation of this song and others on the album.

The Affair
New Years

I hope everyone had a good new year’s eve/new year’s day. I had a pretty good time. A few highlights…

Kiel hit me in the “privates” around 11:10 pm for no reason. He  complains and cries and whines because I never go to his house…and the one time I do, I’m greeted with a fist to my _____s.

(Edit by Kiel:  Speaking of complaining and crying and whining… and here’s what it looked like)

I danced to Lecrae for about 7 hours at Tim’s house. (If you don’t know Lecrae check him out…here)

And I think I almost finished the first song from “the story of polus” entitled “new years (or I hope this new years is better than the last 23)”.

It’s the I’m sorry/I’m in love with you/I’m getting broken up with song.

Click on the link below to listen to this song, we hope you enjoy it!

New Years

And hopefully we’ll have a demo up for you!

We’re finishing some final touches for production on “New Years” from The Story of Polus,  which we’re going to try to get up around 7 o’clock tonight for your listening pleasure here on New Year’s Eve.

Please check back in later tonight!

edit: I (Zachary) got lazy. As you can tell it’s not up yet…but it will be soon.

The Story of Polus is nearing the end of tracking…someday. Zane is sick again (or still sick???) so we will probably have to hold off on finishing his vocals for awhile. But all we have left on this project is vocals and then on to mixing. It’s turning out pretty good. But don’t let the “6 months of working on this project” fool you.  Most of that time was “experimenting.”

I will start mixing (again) the Angel Monster and L.E.IT/Shane, Shane the monster man album after I get done with tsop cd. I am looking at an early 2009 release on this album. Hopefully in February.

Lester remixed is in the works. Zane Hall and myself are working on the track listing for this cd and will be releasing this cd not long after the angel monster split. If you remember any Lester songs and would like to see one of them make the album…let me know.

Demos: I am going to start working with Kiel Cary and Zane Hall both to get some demos for the EPs that are slated to come out in the summer of 2009.

A lot of good things coming up in the future (including a project by Kent F. and Zach Hall yet to be announced and Twerp Reunited) so keep checking back for updates.

I’ll try to get some MP3s up this week for the new year…

Merry Christmas from all of us here at sFm!

We hope you have a great Christmas eve and a joy-filled Christmas day.  Remember the reason for the season, as the bumper-sticker goes.

We’ll be taking a break from recording and web work until Monday, but we’ll be back next week  - hopefully with a demo or two and more info on the bands and upcoming releases.

We’d like to announce six new projects that sludgeFactory Music will be working on in the coming months, in addition to the current The Story of Polus album:

Failure to Relate
Angel Monster and l.e.it
False Accusations
Shane Marron
Twerp
Lester Remixed

Each of these bands/people has an album in various stages of recording and production at sFm.  Some will be released right after Polus’s album, and some later in 2009.

More information to come on each of these projects in the coming days - check back soon for info and demos.

Last night, The Story of Polus went down to KSID radio’s studio for an interview to be played later this week (looks like 3pm on Tuesday, December 23rd) to announce the future release of their first album, “Nebraska, Are You Listening?”.  The segment will last roughly 30 minutes and will include info about the band, the album, and sludgeFactory Productions.  You’ll also be able to hear an acoustic version of “First and the Last” and a special “treat” at the end (which stretches the definition of treat to some horrible extreme).

Here’s a picture of (l-r) Zane, Kent, Kiel, and Zach at the station.  Sadly, Eric left himself out of the picture in order to be behind the camera.  It’s a shame, since he’s the prettiest member of the band.

The Story of Polus at KSID's studio

This group does not include even close to everyone that has worked or will work on the album, but it was enough of the band to get the information out there.

As for production progress on the album, several people came into the studio this weekend to record vocals and a lot of mixing work was done by Zach.  More vocals and mixing are planned for tonight, and hopefully Zach will get on here for a more complete update later.

Our first bit of news is to announce both the forming of sludgeFactory music as a branch of sludgeFactory productions, and also the launch of this website.

If you’re here… you probably already new both of those bits of news.

Come back soon!
