NEW ALBUM UPDATE:

Well friends, we have some great news. Metallark has found a drummer to complete the last few tracks!! As many of you know, Jim (our drummer) has disappeared and , according to MM, is not responding to any calls. We are just a few tracks away from completing the album. A close friend of Metallark's has agreed to help us out and get this thing done!!!!! I am also talking with a new bassist from over on Acid Planet. This young man has told me it would be an honor to play with the Faithful Defenders. I have heard his work and he is very talented!

Those of you that are musicians and have played in bands will understand that, by and large, musicians are a flighty bunch. I do try to be kind and measure my words, but I have experienced this over the years. Perhaps it is the creative mind? We lost Mick (bassist) right after the release of Raw Steel. He just stopped calling and did not answer messages. I suppose the same thing has happened with Jim. It is a great tribute to our group that there are musicians that have heard of us and want to participate!! We are actually known!! WOW!!

I believe we will finally have this thing completed in a few more weeks. Everything is on stand-by on my end until Metallark and his drummer get me the remaining tracks. The art guy is waiting and ready. I am meeting with the t-shirt place this week. All will continue. Hang in there, gang!!! We are OH so CLOSE!!

OK gang, I am trying to procrue the right printing services for this shirt project. I want to say to all of you, once again, that there will be a cost for the shirts!! I simply cannot afford to hand them out AND do the CD. I will let you all know what that cost will be soon.

FORGED STEEL update!! I am proud to announce that I have the music in my hands! I am ready to start "final" production! I will be working on it over the next couple weeks or so. I will make yet ANOTHER announcement once I have sent the music on to the art department. As you all know, once it gets there, they have to do their thing. The point is, we are CLOSER still!!!!! Almost there, my friends!!!!!! Almost.......there........

Well HB, "nothin from nothin leeeeaves nothin..."  HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spapad, it really was done for the love of the Band and our love of the membership. We never intended to make money or make a business out of this. It is truly a "tribute", not just to Priest but to our group. It would be terrible for us to expect payment for that! If you are a member of our group, you can have a CD. That is how it has always worked.

The shirt thing will be different. I will need to make enough to cover costs. We'll see if there is interest.

[Deep Freeze] Monday, February 23, 2009 3:35:27 PM 
HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As always, our biggest fan!!! Thanks, 'Rider!

Look, I am all for making them but it does not make sense to do so if only a couple people want them. The last time we did this, it was the same thing. There were  very few people that were interested. Now, I am not saying that is bad. If it is not that big of a deal to our membership, that is fine. I do not mind at all. The problem is, in order for it to be "cost effective" for me, I will need to have a substantial group that are interested.

If I were able to just print a few and give them away, I would. Believe me! Unfortunately, I am not in a position to afford that right now. ANYWAY, the offer stands. Let's see if we get any more interest.

[Deep Freeze] Monday, February 23, 2009 5:29:51 AM 

Ah!! Very good to see you again, ML. I can truly understand how "life" happens. It is so very easy to get lost in these pages and forget that, outside of this place, we all have lives and responsibilities. But life does go on and , sometimes, it goes on with a sadistic fury. It is so very easy to lose that spark we had on those fateful days of November, oh such a short time ago...It is so very easy to let go.

I have been able to hang onto that spark and I think that has made things remarkably difficult for me. I have tried to remind myself that MM, you and Jim are busy. That you do care. That we will get this done. But the passion and fire that we ignited in November has continued to burn inside me. With each day..each week, each month, I have yearned to see it through. I am sure that I have been MORE than a little irritating to MM.

And so we find ourselves here. So close. I do believe I have found a way to get a full CD. The songs previously mentioned will have to wait until Jim or a capable replacement can see to their completion. I have contacted the art dept. and we are all on the same page. The Princess and I set up a sort of makeshift distribution company during the Raw Steel job so we will utilize that to get the CD packaged and shipped.

Everyone that wishes to receive a CD will get one. Additionally, many of you may remember that we had T-Shirts made when we recorded Raw Steel. There was some minor interest in getting those too but I really did not have enough members order one for it to be feasible. With this in mind, I will ask again;

Do any of you want to purchase a T-Shirt this time around? The Princess has blessed my efforts to produce one and I will do so, IF I have enough orders. The artwork from the new album will be on it. I actually have a "Limited Edition" print on my wall that is incredible!!!!! It would make a wonderful shirt and certainly would be a unique collectors item! So I ask you all, do you want one? Maybe two? I have NO idea what they will cost yet. I will have to cover costs and shipping, as you all know. Let's see if this gets any interest.


[Metallark] Monday, February 23, 2009 2:25:27 AM 
Haven't logged on for a while. I've been extremely busy and dealing with some personal matters that have had me outta town frequently. Excuses aside. I just haven't logged on for a while.

Looks like Freeze is re-charged with the news that MM has a CD to present. We're excited to get everyone something. It is a great shame that we did not get the other songs completed. I was looking forward to Jim's exceptional talents being put to the test on Judas is Rising, Demonizer, and Exciter. 

A big thanks to MM for all his hard work. He's a busy man and has found time to put a lot of energy into this project. Also, thanks fo Freeze for his efforts to keep us all informed.

Yes, it is indeed a shame. I must admit, musicians (by and large) are just plain flakey. NO doubt about it. With rare exception, they are all pretty flighty and not too dependable. AT least this has been my experience over the years.  Having said this, I must say that Jim is a VERY busy man. He has TWO bands that actually perform AND he holds down a real JOB! I can certainly understand how he could be detained for long periods, especially given that this is NOT a "paying gig."

The remaining songs are not for the beginner! They are the more difficult songs we did (Judas Rising being one) We need an experienced drummer to handle these last few. It is clear that we will have to wait. Quite frankly, I am a bit surprised at Jim because he was very excited about finally getting some challenging material! He must have run into a very tough spot.

I will be contacting those of you that want one and getting addresses. As I mentioned before, I am terrible at keeping things and sending my your address early is not a good idea!!!

Great, I log on to this friggin website for the 1st time since I dont know how long and what happens...a fucking virus...wheres MURRAY....

I wanted to say that I have everything done that I can get done with this recording.  Due to the absence of a drummer, there are only 7 complete songs.  I will, in the near future, try to locate a drummer to do the remaining songs which are the more difficult songs for the drums. I will be sending this to freeze tomorrow, monday 2/23.   There are also 2 more that Metallark wants to redo the vocals on and I will send those as soon as they are done.  I suggested to Freeze that he add the tunes from the 1st recording to this one...Take care....
