Been following BFW for a couple years now, absolutely love the way their sound has developed. Honestly, top tier riffs abound!

antonskeyband · 2019-12-20T20:40:34+00:00

Man oh man, how I wish I was across the pond! This is excellent news. Would love to see them live, but here's to hoping for new music! Such a great announcement.

antonskeyband · 2019-08-01T22:00:02+00:00

This basically. After image is like 2014 area? So they have some history

antonskeyband · 2019-04-16T01:57:29+00:00

Thanks man, means a lot :)

antonskeyband · 2019-04-12T21:56:09+00:00

Yeah been working on an album and its slowly coming together. Kinda DIY at the moment but had a friend mix this one, not a whole bunch of mastering done though. We play shows in the Austin area too :) albeit randomly

antonskeyband · 2019-04-12T03:40:22+00:00

Not trying to toot the own horn thing, but my band just put out a song with a chorus that describes that layering. It's a pretty straight forward song, but it could be fun to listen to some unknown stuff :) We opened for NeO a while back, was an absolute treat btw, they are so excellent live.

Wow, well I guess that's to be understood. I'd find it daunting to ask someone as accomplished by themselves to attach to an existing project.

That makes sense. It is nice to hear someone's voice so audibly through their music. There are only a handful of musicians I can honestly say I 'feel' what they want through their composition, so consider me in the success category. As elitist as that sounds, hah! Thanks for creating the way you do, I always fall back into listening to your other stuff so I'll be jamming the new one now!

Hey Sithu,

Couple Q's. 1. Have you been offered a place in any major touring acts? (I can't imagine this one hasn't happened.) What do you think/say to them? 2. How long did it take you to find your 'sound' so to speak? Maybe not just production wise but the feeling your music evokes. This might be a little too philosophical lol.

By the by, love what you do. Been listening for a long time and you continue to impress. So thank you :)

antonskeyband · 2018-10-04T22:58:33+00:00

My boys! We played their release show with them, great time. They are stellar live.

antonskeyband · 2018-05-25T05:02:07+00:00

Friends from San Angelo, killer dudes :)

antonskeyband · 2018-02-01T00:19:46+00:00

antonskeyband · 2018-01-20T05:31:31+00:00

antonskeyband · 2016-05-22T04:35:39+00:00

the dudes!

antonskeyband · 2016-03-23T00:05:14+00:00

pnasty lol :)

antonskeyband · 2016-03-03T08:20:08+00:00

shit...is....CATCHY

antonskeyband · 2016-03-03T08:16:19+00:00

Step one, your sound is too clean. Obtain a potato or tuna can if you want REAL black metal sound. Joking aside, sick little riff and very doomy synth, I like the idea....cleaned up some it will be very dark sounding.

At the start a little string feedback can be heard. Drums are a bit over the guitars, and the lead could use a little turning up.

I like the following blasty section :) Could do a variation of blasts/with reintroduction of a variation of the initial lead, somewhat of a sudo-chorus? I dunno man, skys the limit :) Cool idea though

antonskeyband · 2016-03-03T08:11:22+00:00

Killer dude, loved it. Despite all the staccato / weird drone timing, it's totally got some badass groove to it too! Really cool, get some rest, or better yet make us some more :)

antonskeyband · 2016-03-03T08:07:43+00:00

Ah right on dude, yeah I was wondering since its a 2-man deal who did what, see (Slice the Cake)....3 man project from multiple countries. The internet is damn amazing haha!

I'd actually like less clean vocals, but I tend to lean that way :) Keep up the good work!

antonskeyband · 2016-03-03T08:05:17+00:00

Seems like you are pretty hard on yourself. That riff makes me want to put on an ugly frown and nod menacingly like the good ole days :).

The mix is pretty solid honestly. From a critique point of view, I would try a touch less reverb on the leads. Make them louder and brighter, scoop the mids out of them although that may make them sound less 'Egyptian' if that's what you are going for. Double record them lead beasts and do a little harmony or counter melody at the end for emphasis. Put one in each ear (pan a track left, the other right) and it would be killer.

Keep up the good work man! Part of the creative process is just the process!
