It was a busy week for us. Kurt and Jake spent the week working on their aspects of the album. Our old friend Sean came up to contribute to the album as well (check that out on Twitter). Lastly, Doomriders had some shows w/ Clouds in Philly and NYC, so Nate was out and about.
Here is some footage of Doomriders @ Europa in Brooklyn, NY:
So what's next? Much of the week will be spent on visuals for the album, while Kurt takes a week to record the Black Breath release for Southern Lord. More news soon.

06.10 Update: Recording, Doomriders shows, Facebook page, etc.
We've been pretty quiet w/ posts here in the last few weeks. Mainly because we are all engrossed in creating our new album. So here's a list of a few things going on in our world:
- Doomriders have some shows coming up:
06/13: Philadelphia, PA @ Kung Fu Necktie w/ Clouds, Howl
06/14: Brooklyn, NY @ Europa w/ Clouds, Howl, Zoroaster
06/19: Dover, NH @ The Brickhouse w/ Clouds, Disappearer
06/20: Burlington, VT @ Oddfellows Temple w/ Another Breath, Unrestrained, Dome, Wreck
06/21: Providence, RI @ Club Hell w/ Choppahead DVD Release
- Our Facebook page is live. We don't know how to use it, but at least it's there.
- Prior to our album being released, we will be playing two New England shows this Fall. One of them being the Great American Hardcore Festival in Boston, and the other will be up north and will be announced shortly.
- That's about it for now, more later.

05.19: Recording update: Vocals and guitars underway, etc.
Vocal and guitar recording is moving along. Kurt's amps came back from the repair shop just in time for tracking. He mentioned that his hands felt like stone after playing a few certain riffs over and over. I think that's a good sign.
I'm pacing myself vocally so my head doesn't turn to stone either.
That's it for now, more soon.

Converge "Jane Doe" 2XLP Reissue coming soon
From deathwishinc.com:
A release date and Pre-ordering information will be announced shortly.
Originally released during the turbulent times in September 2001, "Jane Doe" was one of the darkest, bleakest, and most punishing acts of musical emoting ever committed to tape. "Jane Doe" took Converge's musical aggression, creativity and penchant for artistic nihilism-as-therapy to unparalleled emotional depths. While unmistakably Converge in sound, it reached harsher and more emotionally draining levels of abuse, relenting on, but not entirely abandoning, technical precision to focus on emotional upheavals and an all-or-nothing buffeting.
In the end, aggressive music would never be the same, as this 12-step conceptual journey of despair and loss, raised the bar musically and visually for the genre forever.
Later this year, Deathwish (under exclusive license from EVR) will reissue the classic "Jane Doe" album on vinyl format. Available or the first time in over 6 years, this 2XLP will be specially packaged in a Deluxe Gatefold sleeve and will be accompanied by a stunning 28 page full size booklet. The release will also feature a variety of vinyl color variations, appealing to collectors and audiophiles alike.
