10 Albums Deep

Sonz of Acworth is approaching it's 10th anniversary of existence as a collective, and coincidentally our 10th proper album is mere weeks away from being complete. For purists keeping score, I am officially declaring that this is the 10th album whether it actually is or is not. Do you count Twisted Wiggeronomy III, The Lost Wiggeronomy? I do. I do not, however, count the Ticket Sale Bribe EP. That shit was strictly intended for promotional use.

Just the other day, John Dowis stopped by the porch to record his first contribution to the SOA legacy since his famous appearance on Sonz of Acworth II: Electric Boogaloo. John provided some blistering guitar for a new track partially inspired by the haunting wall eyed stare of this coked out WWF superstar:



Warning: Don't stare at this shit for too long!

Every time one of our albums gets close to being done, I go through a period of weeks or months trying to adjust each mix to an absurd degree of perfection by listening to them over and over in my car. Yet, I find that when I revisit our older albums years later, they still have parts that sound like horse shit to me. So, maybe it's ultimately useless but I'm straight up OCD when it comes to this. Anyway that's the current status on the SOA front. I might yet sneak in another new track or two before deciding it's the right time to drop these fresh musical bombs on the holy Shiites.
