Update. VAC. Aug 3rd.

August 3rd, 2009 by Hexfix93


Yes my mastering guy will finish the lp I hope today or tomorrow. Then, We get everything set up, Heavy promotion will happen at the end of this month. I will do podcasts talking about each song releasing them every week up till October 27th when “The Art of Breaking Apart” will officially be released. There is a hidden track on the lp, The data track was scrapped because enhanced CDS with data on them ruin the sound quality of the audio portion of the CD. I got this information right from the mastering house’s tech guys. So no free hidden lp :( I really worked hard to make this LP have the best sound quality over all the other VAC LPs, and I don’t want that to be tainted. I picked Brian Gardner and Burnie Grundman to get the best posable cds out.

Now then, I am also working on all the backing tracks for the tour, importing the old songs into logic and remixing them. So far I have improved pretty toy, and discolored eyes and Ghost in the Circuit. I will have all the backing tracks done. We cannot play all the parts live so we will try to play what we can. There are only 3 of us and I suck at singing and playing another instrument. I will contact a booking agent this week and get press photos done next week. I really want to tour to kick ass, I really want the new lp to sell well. So as it stands right now, VAC will play alone, with local acts opening up. I really hope my dark future brightens up a bit. Wish me luck :)

Bryan…

    can we get an idea of where you will be touring? i’d like to know if i need to make plans to try and catch a flight, if you don’t come around to me.

  2. Hexfix93 Says:

    I wont know that until I talk to a booking agency.

  3. thedarkpoptoys Says:

    good luck sir.

  4. APX808 Says:

    I would love to read a paper from the tech guys about how CD material and adding a data track could modify sound quality.

    I really like the podcast idea, its awesome to know what is behind a song, each song is a story by itself.

    They know their stuff, they do it for a living.

    nice!!! you b@stard! you made it!

    If your CD will be avaible in Poland I am going to buy it for sure

  7. Vibe_Sequence Says:

    Can you give us a hint what the data track would have been? :)

    I was thinking it would be Oblivion Interface.

  8. Sumez Says:

    Please apply for next year’s Kinetik :)

    luck

  11. Mr Knesh Says:

    FUCK YAR! Im excited!

  12. ViddyDrone Says:

    Please post info when you have a booking guy, that way I can pass requests on to local clubs/bars in the Scranton area to see if something can work out! Gwar and Dying Fetus (not Foetus) have played Tinks alone, so why not VAC? Lots of good venues in NY & Philly too!
    I can’t wait for the podcasts and album, just in time for the pagan ritual of spirits, Halloween!!! I love alternate live version of songs (thinking of just the songs mentioned above live is totally gizzworthy), look at how NIN’s translated over the years. The tracks will be awesome I’m sure, good luck developing your live sound, and have fun!

    -perhaps the art of breaking apart is simply the first catabolic step before a great anabolic one…

    Will the podcasts involve snippets of the songs? I kinda hope not. I’ve waited so long for the album I want to listen to it in it’s entirety, but I am looking forward to hearing the podcasts, it’s a great idea. If the US shows are a complete sell out success, would you consider coming to Europe? You’d so easily pack out the venues over here.

  14. MrBuckets Says:

    this is wonderful news!! being in minnesota I really hope you come close by on your tour. good luck with everything sir, I hope you attract some new fans and it really sounds like metropolis is getting behind you on this album. can’t wait!

    questions, are you going to announce at all what the hidden album was going to be? maybe a special edition or box edition could allow you to release it?

    much love from the midwest

  15. RAW|BhL Says:

    Good stuff!!! Can’t wait for it. What happened to the data track? will that be released as another album/downloadable content?!

  16. Hexfix93 Says:

    Nope the hidden stuff wont come out, instead i added a hidden track, that you will listen to once, then turn off the cd before it every time after. eheheheheehe

  17. frozen Says:

    The best of luck to you! I’m looking forward to everything.

  18. untouchable_888 Says:

    awesome. this record is much awaited. ^_^

  19. mindphaser Says:

    can’t wait for the new disc! also please play at kinetik 3.0 if you can. take care

  20. ViddyDrone Says:

    How cryptic of you Hexfix93… Masses of unreleased VAC material hoarded in a secret vault? Are you going NIN on us :)? Don’t make me contract Indiana Jones for this one…
