Valentines's Day, 2009

Hi everyone!

The album is still coming along great. Each track we record i get more and more excited. There are still a couple of songs that need writing before we can finish up the recording sessions, so i am praying we don't lose momentum.

As for the songs themselves,those of you who have heard our first record, will notice a seemingly abrupt departure from many of the light-hearted poppy elements which distinguished that album. I don't want to say that "we've found our sound." Besides being cliche, that would also be depressing. I hope we never come to a point where we become boxed in by the boundaries we have set for ourselves. This record shows how our music is evolving, bringing us places, we've always wanted to go.

Here is another short clip from our studio. Enjoy!

cheers, joel

It has begun!

After many purchases from various music stores, hours spent practicing, composing, and contemplating, Lehnen have finally started recording their second (as of yet, Untitled) album.

First impressions? Well, I myself am exhilarated! The raw material already sounds BAD-ASS, and we are making more progress than we thought we would at this stage. Now, that is not to say that we will be releasing the record any time soon, no; however, it will be out there sooner than expected, that's for sure. We have yet to write a few more songs for the second album, but all of the ideas are on the table. 

I cannot, and will not, go into too much detail explaining what the songs are sounding like thus far, but I will say this much: This CD is going to be anything but minimal. Be excited, be be excited! Here are a few pictures from the studio:

Welcome

Dear Friends,

Updating and maintaining a website can be so exhausting. That is why I, The Fress, have decided to follow in the footsteps of so many devoted bloggers before my time, and blog on behalf of our band. 

As of now, we, Lehnen, are (re)entering a very exciting stage in our musical career. We've hinted at it more than once in recent times. Correct: we are writing material for our second album. I strongly encourage that you look back for news once a week. We'll be sharing pictures, videos, maybe a sound clip or two...who knows...We have a long journey ahead of us. Certainly not as long as Massive Attack's follow up to "100th Window", no. And CERTAINLY not as long as GnR's follow up to...well, I never really gave a shit about GnR, so I can't tell you what preceded "Chinese Democracy". But I CAN tell you that A. the only good thing about that album is its title & B. We are confident we will achieve more than coming up with a ???clever??? name for our next album! I will not reveal too much just yet, but if you bare with us, I can guarantee you a bulk shipment of pleasure! We love you all!
