Oh yeah, I'm pretty much setting up to explain myself till the end of these 4. No stones left unturned.

Wow, that's... hefty! Awesome though.

I guess though, through the interesting musical career you've beene though, the change in direction, (In a sense) Does need clarity to it.

Although, leaving everyone in the dark could provoke interesting responses.

Yeah I guess, but it also leads people to make assumptions on me and my process based on their interpretations, which can be MORE work in the long run.

As annoying as it must be. I like guessing. Terry Bozzio?

'Personally, I think he would be fantastic.

Gospel choir on decon. No feature female vox I don't think.

That's an awesome idea, will the choir have a very prominent role on the album?

You got the choir!? a real choir!? man, that would blow my mind, it would work so well with your music.

as long as you aren't 'scaring' a choir of children (again)

Yeah, Fred's playing drums on his solo record.

What the fuck! A second Special Defects album??

Have been reading through this thread and I'm quite pleased that it looks like it'll be heavy but not just the obvious heavy. There's many ways to make something hit you between the eyes and cause your brain to seize up. I've got stuff from people like Einstuzende Neubauten, Meshuggah, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Ben Frost and even things like the electronica of the Raster Noton label that will stop a charging rhino at 30 paces but all in completely different ways. Parts of SYL had honed the 'set phasers to RAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHHH' technique so a different angle on this is just about the best thing to hope for.

Glad to see you're doing the best thing for each part of the project as you see it, Devin. It truly looks to be paying off and you're going to end up with four killer releases to make up the finished run.

Magnus Öström is an excellent experimental jazz drummers... Excuse me Devin but the deconstruction album have a real full orchestra (like therion, rhapsody...) or samples of an orchestra (the beggining albums of rhapsody...? Thank's for all and for your inspiration.

I think you are onto something here.
