"Pieces Of A Real Heart" the photoshoot and finished record - 12.15.09

December 15, 2009


It's been a busy couple months since my last blog. We've been making progress towards finishing the new record and it's pretty exciting. It goes to mastering tomorrow which is the very final step in the recording process. That means by Thursday (my birthday fyi), it should be 100% finished!

We finally have a name too. It's called, Pieces Of A Real Heart (release date: 03.09.10). We think it's our best yet. I know we say it every time, but that's because we're always trying to beat our last one and aren't happy until we have. The rock songs on Pieces are more upbeat and energetic while the ballads are more emotional. We can't wait for everyone to hear it.




We also had a photo shoot for Pieces with a guy named Tec Petaja. I wish my name was that cool. He had us tromping through weeds and creeks, standing near "Spiny Assassin Bugs" (seriously, look them up), and making friends with a cat with no tail we named "Castle."
I must admit, we're pretty good looking ;)
Actually, Tec made us look much, much cooler than we really are. He get's all that credit, not us. Well, Chris Rohman being in the band helps too.

Otherwise, we're settling down and taking it easy for Christmas. On behalf of Sanctus Real, we hope you're having a very wonderful Christmas season with friends and family celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus.

Merry Christmas!
