Ahh the Quiet, the brushing of the trees, the whisper of the wind and in the distance the whirr of lonely cars gliding along the motorway to a destination unknown. It is the hour after the Riot Act, the lost hour between Saturday night and Sunday morning. Is it happiness, regret, embarassment, saddness or hope that you feel. God knows where you've woken up or how you're going to get home. Ahh yes the Quiet Act. Its early Sunday morning and i'm drunk but when I get home I'm going to listen to a record because it'll sound really good. I'll don the headphones and turn it up really loud and when I awake Sunday afternoon my ears will be ringing and my head will be pounding but it was fun while it lasted. Weird recently recorded their sixth studio album 'Quiet Act' up north in a quiet place. Its in the final mix sessions Out this year

Matering Quiet Act
Hello people.

Our friend Paul who is currently mastering Quiet Act in his spare time (thanks mate) was on holiday last week so there has been a delay. However he has done a few tracks and bearing no more gliches (soundcard problems) the lp will be with us soon.

Thanks for your patience it'll be on itunes soon!

Support Weird to support Feeder
Feeder are running a competition to allow an unsigned band to support them at their Glasgow gig. Naturally as we're all massive Feeder fans and have covered their work several times, we'd chew our own arms off to have the chance. Thankfully, we don't have to do that, but instead can rely on our loyal fans (i.e. you....) to rate our music on the indiestore website:

http://indiestore.7digital.com/weird...

You may have to register on indiestore to be able to do this, but its free and your help would be much, much appreciated.

Cheers

** Update **

Some people have been having a few probs rating the tracks, hope this helps:

If you're on the page and it says 'you must be signed in...etc.' when you try to rate the track, click that, put your e-mail in, click 'I am a returning customer', enter your password then click continue. It should take you back to the page again, but this time you should be able to rate the tracks.

am listening to "Glass People", really like it, especially the guitars, the sound is awesome, very relaxing. Can't wait till Quiet Act comes out so I can download that one.
Hope you guys have a gig in october, once you recover from oktoberfest, am still hoping to wander over that way.

Big thanks to Greg and Deek for coming through with your mates on Sunday night.
It makes the world of difference to look out to a crowd and see friendly faces.
Hope you enjoyed the new sound guys.

Quiet Act.

Mixing, one or two things to tidy up. Otherwise done.

Tracklisting, Stu and i like it, Bo said fine (that could mean anything)

Artwork. Nearly done!

Mastering, well mixing needs to be finished first.

Overall. I can taste the launch party beer...

Just listened to the latest track you added: Grand Day Out! Even paused Lord of the Rings so I could listen to it, now if that isn't dedication... Wasn't sure in the beginning but once it got going I really liked it, very smooth. Then again I love the way you guys say "Grrrand"!!!!

You ever listened to a song so much that it starts to change and you could swear you're going mad?? TWO songs are left, but they are right stubborn little buggers hiding a wee flaw that I need to catch and iron out. SO CLOSE YET SO FAR. The track listing could be easy though, mainly cos deez ain't here to spin touble! (yoda voice) "He will be, he willl be" ARRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH.


Once its finished I ain't going to listen to this record till the launch party can you guess how many time i've heard these songs??!!

By god I'm nearly done, can't believe the mixing for Quiet Act is nearly finished. You think there is no light at the end of the tunnel and you're miles away then all of a sudden its nearly done! Mastering is next, big thanks to Paul Tonner who has agreeded once again to add the final polish. I reckon 6 wks or so and it'll be out. (don't quote me on that).
