Weekly Update: 09/26/2008

It's been a long time coming. Finally, after almost a year, Belle's Wake is happy to present our new project: The Riot Sessions. Instead of a traditional release, we decided we wanted to do something a little different. From this date on, we will release a new song every Friday. Some of these songs will be part of The Riot Sessions, others may be part of other series. We are very excited about this new project and hope that you are too. We are going do our best to keep this schedule up. When there are gaps in the releases we'll try to do our best to make it up to you.

For our first song, we decided to release Penelope. Its a little different than the Belle's Wake you've heard before. Scott started writing it almost three years ago and this summer we finally got around to finishing it. We'd like to thank Erich Netherton and Matt Melberg, who with Scott, mixed and mastered the song for us.

We hope you enjoy our first installment of The Riot Sessions. Please feel free to write an email or leave a comment and tell us what you think about the new project. As always please send the song out to as many friends as possible. See you next week! - Andrew

We'll start with a pic from the wayback machine. This is Andrew and Scott rocking out the Water's residence back in 2002. You've come a long way, baby.

We're within days (days!) of releasing our first two new tracks since the Nature ep. By next week's update you'll have A Fevered Dream and Penelope to listen to, I promise! Erich is in the final stages of mixing on them and they sound great (thanks so much Erich, you're the best!). We're also working on a redesign of this site so stay tuned for that.

In the meantime, check out our lyrics for the new songs and the old ones at the always awesome Lyricwiki which now has a Belle's Wake page! -Broox

Weekly Update: 09/12/2008

I've decided to update the site weekly from now on with whatever news we have to offer so that frequent visitors will have something to look at.

Since early August we've recorded 6 new songs, tentatively titled Fevered Dream, Penelope, Old Soul Creek, Persephone, Meteor, and the Curse of Old Shawnee. We are in the process of mixing them now with help from our friend Erich of Sick Figures and plan to release Fevered Dream and Penelope first, hopefully in the next two weeks! We may also post some covers that we've done in the studio for fun. We're excited about these new tracks and we can't wait for you to hear them! -Brooks
