Hi, this is Vaughan Gregory from Grave Forsaken. Welcome to the first Grave Forsaken Monday Mosh. I will be endeavouring to post a Monday Mosh each week on, you guessed it, Monday!
The purpose of this blog is to keep you up to date with what Grave Forsaken are up to on a weekly basis. We have some pretty exciting plans for the remainder of the year, and we want you, the Grave Forsaken supporter, to be part of what we are doing.
The first thing I need to remind everyone of is the need to rejoin (or join for the first time) the Mosher Crew on our new website. You simply need to go the Mosher Crew page and fill in the form. This will allow you access to the members area, where you will be privy to Mosher Crew downloads and video. You will also receive our monthly Mosher Crew newsletter via email.
Once a month we will be putting an unreleased studio recording or live track in the members area of our website. If you go there right now you will find a rough mix of “The Calling” from our live recording due out later in the year. This is not a final version, but it gives you a good idea of what the recording will sound like. I’m actually right in the middle of mixing the recording here at North Wind Studio. There are so many jobs to do in a band like ours, so it’s a matter of constantly plugging away on things.
Another monthly feature in the members area will be our new video series “Mosher Crew Confidential”. Unlike Grave Forsaken TV, Mosher Crew Confidential won’t be posted on Youtube – it will be only available to our members. It will be a video news update, bringing the crew completely up to date with the latest happenings in the Grave Forsaken camp.
Speaking of Grave Forsaken TV, if you go to this location, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFmrrSGPZpQ you will be able to watch Episode 8 – The History Of Grave Forsaken: Part I. This is one of my favourite episodes so far. It takes you through the early history of my old band Sanctified. There is some archival footage from 1996 in there, so look out for that. It was made with the cooperation of my good friend and former bandmate Chris Connor. Thanks Chris for supporting my vision to tell the full story of the origins of the current Grave Forsaken.
We are now less than 2 weeks away from the release of our new album “This Day Forth” on Soundmass. We are very excited about this release, it is a massive step up from “Destined For Ascension”. Please support the band by heading over to the Soundmass site and picking up a copy of the album. All preorders receive our feature length documentary on “The Making Of This Day Forth”. This is one of the most comprehensive documentaries about a Christian metal band you’ll ever see, so don’t miss it! If I can indulge a little, countless hours were spent filming and editing this documentary. It might not be Flight 666, but we are pleased with it none the less.
You may have noticed we have been streaming the debut EP on the site. From now on we will be streaming a different EP or album each week. This week it’s Beside The River Of Blood, so have a listen when you get a chance, especially if you don’t yet own the album.
There has been a bit going on behind the scenes lately, as always. There is an interesting bit of news that will be coming up in the next couple of weeks that we feel will greatly enhance the band. Stay tuned for that announcement.
As I sign off this first edition of the Monday Mosh, I’m listening to a mix of the live recording I’ve been working on through my studio headphones. We still haven’t worked out exactly how this recording will be released, but I know the hardcore supporters will be really keen to hear it. It’s one of those recordings that is flawed, but there is a raw honesty to it that I’m really digging. I hope you will to.
Until next time…
MOSH ON!
Vaughan and Grave Forsaken
