  What up kids? Hopefully all of you are good and healthy because the The Predicates are a busy bunch of people writing and recording! First and foremost the new Predicates album is coming along very slowly. We have start recording over 3 times already due to Dave buying new recording equipment so that we can get the best possibly sound for our record. Dave polished off 7 songs on the drums last week and he will finish the rest tomorrow. After that we lay down the guitar parts, then bass then vocals. We won't be playing any shows or recording in August due to the fact that Dave will be in Germany and the rest of Europe basically the whole month. In other related Dave news, Dave Tuetken AKA Herman The Great will be releasing a solo album. He has the whole thing written and recorded and just needs to lay down his vocal tracks. The sound is alot like a heavier Jimmy Eat World in my opinion. It sounding great and it will definitely be a great rock record! Also releasing a solo album to be bundled with Dave's solo album will be my solo album.The title of my album will be "The Best Player on the Team" and it will include anywhere between 5-8 and songs.
I've got about 3 down so far and skeletons to the rest. My album will be acoustic, with some synth, drums, and drum machines. Dave and I thought of releasing them together as double album kind of a joke but when we thought about it we thought it to be a good idea.
So you will be able to get two albums for basically the price of one. We will be selling it on CDBaby.com and digitally thru itunes.com come this Fall 2004. Dave and I will not be playing any shows solo, we are just going to record our albums and send them to magazines for reviews and sell it online. Not to worry but The new Predicates record should be completed Fall 2004/Winter 2004. Stay safe and in tune to The Predicates world around you! Falling from grace, Gregg
