I hope you are all having a great start to 2020! This week I have two things that I am releasing. The first is this vocal cover of the song Chop Suey off the Toxicity record by System Of A Down. I have done a few tracks from this album, and I figured why not do the main single. I do intend to do more covers similar to my “My Last Serenade” and “The Signal Fire” where I play the solos or do the entire song. I am also going to be bringing back the Tips and Tricks series soon.
The second thing I am releasing is an EP with my band Deadlights. We worked throughout 2019 on this ep and I am stoked that it is finally out. To check it out, go hit the DistroKid hyper fellow link below to get the ep on whatever streaming platform you use. Or search “Deadlights No Hope For The Lost” on whatever streaming platform you use. It will be available on Bandcamp in a few days as well.
A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to have DJ Temple of Without Mercy, Temple Entertainment, and Temple Music Academy step into the studio and go over some great stuff for episode 50 of The Concrete Wasteland Podcast. These are 6 key things to keep in mind when the episode comes out on Saturday, March 30th. You can watch the video for the episode on my channel when it drops, or find the audio on Spotify, Google Play, Apple Podcast, Soundcloud, and KatnEvans Metal Liter Box.

Check out my tips on working with a DAW
Throughout my years as a musician and recording engineer, I have made many mistakes, and I have watched many new bands make the same mistakes. I want to help newer bands that are starting out make the best use of their time, and reduce stress while working together. The music industry has changed drastically, and the rules and methods of the 80s and 90s no longer work.

I decided to scrap the last one from the last batch ( I can do better) so here is the first one for this more recent batch. I got a bunch done then had to take a few days off before I could tackle the next half of the session.
So here is my Vocal Cover of "Light The Torch" by Soilwork off of the album "Figure Number Five"

So my friends in No Faith In Fortune released a music video for their song Dead Possessions a few weeks ago, and then came to Medicine Hat and kicked some serious ass. So I had to do a vocal cover of the song for the hell of it.

Lacuna is an up and coming metalcore band from Calgary, Alberta. This 5-piece came down to Medicine Hat to play Alternative Waves 2019 on Day 2 and tore it up. Keep an eye out for these guys as they continue to grow.

"If you are a fan of Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Or Ke$ha you will hate this band" that's what the sticker on Attila's album Outlawed said I and loved it. Payback was always my favourite song from the album. So here is my cover of Payback by Attila featuring my shitty haircut

So for this week's cover I decided to go way back to a song I first heard on NHL 2005. Fall Out Boy's Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued. This was actually the first song by them I had ever heard before I hear the rest of the songs from the album "From Under The Cork Tree". This was a fun song to do, and of course, my cat chicha had to make an appearance. I can close the door and he will still find a way in haha.
