My new favorite band…

is The City Veins. It sounds ridiculous, but it’s not out of arrogance. I’ve never been able to listen to my own band’s CDs. It’s like listening to a recording of your own voice or watching yourself on video. You know that it’s you, but it seems foreign and awkward and makes you cringe a little. That, plus there’s almost always several things about every CD I’ve ever made that I would change if I had the time/money.

But our new CD is awesome and I’ve been looping it in my car for the last week. I’m psyched. When we set forth to make this EP, we wanted to make sure that we did it right, that even if no one bought it or heard it we’d still be proud of the product. I’m thrilled with what we’ve got and can’t wait to share it.

On a related note, Mike Eudy at Jamalot Studios in Rockville is an awesome producer/engineer/mixer/jack of all trades. He deserves a ton of credit for our CD. If anyone out there is in the market for recording services, Mike’s your man (and he’s cheap too).
