    Been waiting patiently for this one, can't wait to get it :D

    Just so you know, the post lists Herlathing as tier 1 vocals, but the video says it's tier 3.

    Anyway, that and the Shokkher song both look pretty fun, as does Highlord. And I definitely approve of the decision to push off Thunderclap for the potential of keyboards. So good work all around.

    So Blinded is out today, so you can go grab that if you'd like. And from what I've seen of Simple Man, a lot of you will like.

    I've also added all of our proxy releases to the main post. So far that just amounts to So Easy (already in the store) and Runaway (coming soon). There's also links for coming soon tracks, so you can check the bands out ahead of time.

    You might also notice a new name on the list. We've signed Yesternight's Decision last week. They've got an interesting hard rock sound, their whole existence is due to the various Harmonix games (their bassist learned because of Guitar Hero), and their Myspace features Wal-Mart zombies. So we were won over pretty easily.

    We're taking a brief break from metal in order to get Just Hang On and Magician out the door next. (Big thanks to S1ckH4nds, Mithin, and Markleford for helping so much on those two tracks!) Our current target is to have 12 non-proxy releases by the end of the summer... it's a little daunting (though kinda small compared to others), but we've got enough material. We ain't going away. :)

    I've emailed the band Abysmal Dawn a couple times and they said that they're interested in RBN, so would they be a band you're interested in?

    They're not really a style I like personally, but it would be good to expand our collection. So sure, we'll talk to them, my email is witko@fairwoodstudios.com.

    And only a dollar, too. :D

    Great, great song. Glad you brought it to RBN.

    Apparently, there's another team that Relapse is working with, so we won't be taking on Abysmal Dawn. Ah well.

    On the upside, we will be among the groups working with Bright Midnight. We'll be doing "A Hotel in Saigon", from their new album "La Minuit".

    We also (sorta publicly) signed on two of John Brandon's projects- we'll be doing "I Thought I Knew You" from his group Those Among Us, and "Falling Apart" from his BSM project.

    We'll have videos of Just Hang On, Runaway, and possibly an early take of Welcome to Our Town over the weekend. Hopefully, Magician as well, if we can get that passed in time.

    Well that could still mean good news for me :) and if some of your other stuff ever hits the ps3 i'll be sure to pick it up.
