THE PUPPET
Posted: Fri Feb 09, 2007 9:12 pm3 more days of vox, and the mix is almost done as well...shes mastered on the 22nd of feb.
What is it? it's complicated, precise, comfortably overwhelming, super heavy and dreamy.
It's the record where dtb and syl collide. Some parts are hellish, some parts super wonderful, some parts funny, and other than a week of puching in help from Dave and Mike, I did it all. I am the dude for both syl and dtb, and so I figured put all the ideas in one place finally, and I learned TONS from the actual technical end of things.
Am I proud of it?
Wow...yeah...I could listen to this over and over again...the production is really clear, and theres tons going on...like a polite infinity with an angry syl buzz.
parts like:
Skeksis
War
Slow Me down
All Hail
Sunday Afternoon
Truth
Is it scary?
...almost, but everytime it 'goes there' a dtb-ish track gives you a break after, therefore my dreams while recording this one haven't been full of devils. Infinity (the concept) has 'devils' and 'angels', and they're both pure (and perfect in their own ways) The hellish parts are purely brutal though, just a little more honest than some syl.
Does it sound good sonically?
FUCK YES
Will it be played live?
...nope...in fact, you may never see me play live again.
What is Ziltoids role?
He's a puppet! You'll be able to talk to him soon...he's travelling here to hang as we speak, he just exists FAR from earth and there was some customs issue.
He loves coffee...black...
What the 'Baby' experience does for you is pretty profound...the ugly gets uglier, and the beautiful gets gorgeous.
I will be pumping out records for as long as I can, but this one is pretty special...my current headspace is once in a lifetime. Enjoy it if you want!
Inside Out is going to put it out, as well as hdr through mail order, so again...as cool as it may be, most of your friends will never know about it.
Travis is doing the art, we've been mutual fans of the Dark Crystal since I met him on Terria, and he's a swell guy.
We'll be doing shows for youtube and the web of Ziltoid that is indirectly related to this...the concept is pretty complete, and it all makes sense when you hear it.
What's it going to be called?
Either
1/ZILTOID THE OMNISCIENT
2/THE MIGHTY MASTURBATOR
3/THE PUPPET
Peace, Chaos and puppets!
