MY BAND

Well, my metal band The Last Void was dismantled, and i was left with my other not-meta-at-all-band-but-mostly-folk-band "Mr Gone and the Invisibles". We decided to record an EP last year, and just finished it today! The album will be available for purchase tomorrow on the internetz for a dollar :D Heres a sample!

I also made the album cover. Here are all the steps.

First step: make something really different. Playing with a robot travelling forever theme. Since the album is going to be named Forever, i thought I could play with the robot lasting forever theme. 1 hour speedy

Second step: I dreamed about this composition, woke up, found a marker and sketched it on my idea board (yes i have one lol). Then came back and made another 2hour speedy. The idea of including the girl there was to give a sense of size this robot has, and also kinda make believe it has been for a long long time, and now is just part of the environment for the girl. She is more into playing with her kite than she looking at that monstruosity.

Step 3: Another choice of colors. I hate how this one looked. 20mins

Step 4: Another attempt. I decided not to continue this one since it involved rethinking all elements.

Final Cover: I decided to go with my gut feeling and work on it

I absolutely love the green version of the robot (the one you said you hate).

The washing line(?) and the kite provide a really elegant slice of humanity that contrasts beautifully with the inert robot-thing

Is your album title perhaps a reference to The Maxx?
