HAIL, LEGION OF THUNDER!

We're happy to announce that The Golden Hourglass is officially mixed and the album is off to mastering tomorrow!

The next couple of steps will be approving the album master and then sending the album to our vinyl manufacturer who will then send us the album test pressings for approval! 

Mastering is a bit of a mysterious art to most music fans and one that frankly not a lot of people even think about.  Just know that we're not cutting any corners! Brad Blackwood has worked with some huge artists and is a 3-time Grammy winner!  You can read more about him here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brad_Blackwood

If you want to dig into the mastering process a bit more here's an in depth interview with Brad:

And if all this is a total mystery to you and you're curious here's a shorter video explaining mixing and mastering:

That's it for today! We'll continue working on setting up the backer surveys while we wait on the masters and test pressings, and will be sure to give you a heads up when they go out! Joseph Schmalke's stretch-goal shirt image is done and Bo Bradshaw's is only a hair away from being done so hopefully we'll have mock-ups of both shirts in the next update too!

Thanks for your support, patience, and for making this album happen!

Cheers,

Josh (obo Nina, Jesse, Justin & Udoroth)
