So what I failed to mention last time is that the album is set in the years leading up to the death of an unknown man found on the beach in Adelaide. We have been working out lyrical ideas from a summary of the mystery and some interesting facts that were discovered by various means. If you want to have a read, here's what we're working from - http://blogs.smithsonianmag.com/history/2011/08/the-body-on-somerton-beach/
There has been a flurry of productivity since the last blog and now we have 10 or 11 songs down, not quite sure exactly how many, everything is moving too fast! Most of the instrument parts are finished, we have just started vocals and it's all starting to come together rather nicely.
In fact, this blog has been by far the least successful part of this album recording as each post has been started but not finished and slowly added to over the course of many hours. I guess that's what happens if you try to record a whole album in the space of 24 hours. More to come.
