AB IV Writing/Recording Sessions

Post by abw1987 »

Thought I'd create a thread where we can discuss the ongoing AB IV writing sessions.

I know we started following this in The 4th Album thread, but I figure we should leave that thread as a discussion about our desires and speculation on the new album.

Here are all the updates as of January 10th. Feel free to post future updates in subsequent posts.

I'm so jealous of that house :( I need to get famous and win a grammy and have a house like that.

Yeah, it looks like a very cozy atmosphere for songwriting. I've seen so many photos of it that I almost feel like I've been there.

I think that picture of Myles looking astonished should be the album cover. ABIV - Even We're Blown Away!

Track listing:
1) Whoa, Impressive
2) What did I just see?!
3) What did I just hear?!
4) Holy $#!%
5) Holy &(@&!*% $#!%

Same. I've seen so many photos of that room that if I broke in to snoop around I would know where everything is. :shifty
Another photobucket casualty... :(

I don't know if any of you guys saw this string of Tweets but according to Michael they've written six songs already. They're on a roll!

That's pretty impressive. Most of the songs probably were already written for 90%, but still.. Not bad :D
