VANISH EP

The EP has kind of morphed into something I didn't originally plan on. You
can say it led me to tell a story I didn't know I needed to tell. In short, it is
a musical journey through one mans struggle with drug addiction and how
it eventually took his life. It's an instrumental album as I wanted the music
to speak for itself. Musically it is the next step in the evolution of Seventh
Circle. Using more electronic elements infused with earthy overtones. I am
proud of what this EP has wound up being and where it has taken me.
I hope to release it sometime in May. Until then, here is the tracklist.

INCEPTION
DENIAL
SILHOUETTE
THE DEPTHS
ALL BUT GONE
LAST BREATH
VANISH

As you may have noticed on the main page, I am working on an EP
at the moment which I plan to release in February. There will be
7 tracks on it. Three new songs, three old demos and a demo of a
song from "HUMAN". It's also possible that Eric Clayton will once
again co-produce it with me. We'll see if we can make it work.

Happy Holidays to all...

Well it's been quite a while since I updated here. I recently finished writing the next
album and I am now working on lyrics. The next step is working on the guitars
which will be a lot of work... there will be a TON of guitars on the new album.
I'm hoping to release the album this Fall but we'll see what happens. I still have
a lot of work to do but I think the biggest part is out of the way at least.

As far as some details on the new album.

As I said before, it will be called HUMAN. There are currently 14 songs
written for the album and I don't expect that will change. The album will
not be a concept album like the last one, though it will deal with some
similar themes throughout. Most of the subject matter will deal with
political and social issues as well as technology and it's role in the world
today. The tone of the album is somewhat darker and much heavier than
THE STRUGGLE. I would call this more of a hard rock album as it's very guitar
driven with your occasional strings/piano/etc...

Here is the current tracklist, though the track order or some titles could change.

A CLASH IN CHAOS
THE LINE
HUMAN
BLOOD WITHOUT CONSEQUENCE
DISSENT
WE ARE MORTAL
COLLIDE
IN SHADOWS AND SILENCE
THE MISSION
AGENTS OF ANNIHILATION
THE ARM COMES DOWN
ONE NATION
A DEAD SOCIETY
NUMB

That's all for now.

I did a little redesign of the site as you probably noticed. I have a BIO page and a
MISC page up on the header, those pages will be added shortly. This is the first
step towards a new look for the website which will coincide with the next
album. I hope to make the site more interactive as well as more informative.
It will be a work in progress...

Thanks everyone
ADAM

for those of you who do not know... the album is finished and AVAILABLE.
the response so far has been great, about 400 downloads and fifty CD's sold
overall between the 2 disc and the single disc (not offered on the web yet).
i've got a few reviews coming out soon, looking forward to reading those
of course. the album has received great feedback so far from the few people
i have actually heard from so that makes me happy. I will be offering a t-shirt
in the next few days, just trying to finalize a design for it. it would make the
most sense to do a white shirt since that would match the album art but i hate
white shirts so it will be black.

in other news, a couple days after i finished THE STRUGGLE, i began writing
the next album. i had done some brainstorming before that on what i wanted
to do and what direction to go in, etc. i mapped out the whole album before
i started writing it and now i have been composing for the past few weeks. i
have made way more progress than i thought i would have and i am happy
with what is written thus far. i will share with you the title of the next album
now but i'll wait on a track list and any more details. the title will be HUMAN.

anyway... that's all for now... take care everyone and thank you for all your
feedback on THE STRUGGLE. i'd love to hear more!

Take care
ADAM

ALBUM COMING IN AUGUST...OR SO WE THINK AT LEAST!

The album has been out of my hands for about a month, Eric has been putting
the finishing touches on everything and editing my vocals, etc. We figure it
will be finished by August.

Regarding the other project I mentioned below, because of the delayed release
of this album, it looks like I will not be releasing it when I had originally
planned. More on that after the release of THE STRUGGLE.

Thank you everyone for your patience... We are very close!

i leave for california today to finish the record. Eric and I have been working
long distance for the past five weeks and now we'll take the next two weeks
and finish this thing. i am really excited to finally have this completed and
having eric involved has made this album sound so much better than i ever
imagined it could. the man is a genius and a master of his craft.

as far as a release date, i am going to give a tentative date of June 1st for now.
It could be a day or two earlier or later. I still plan to offer the album free, but
i will be doing it slightly different than i had originally planned. More on that
later.

One more thing... I have been working on a concept for the next seventh circle
project and I will begin writing it in june. I won't say any more right now
except I plan to release it in october. I realize that is not that far from now, but
i am confident i will be able to do it.

Goodbye for now...

ADAM

alright... so i am going back to california sometime in may to finish the
album.  i'd love to go sooner but things are way to crazy right now...
life happens as always... and there's that whole money issue that always
makes things difficult.  but the plan is to go back out there for ten more
days and finish it.  no excuses...

with that, i would estimate a late may release... hopefully press cd's within
a few weeks of the online release... we'll see what happens.  in the meantime,
any help from all of you would be awesome, anyone you think might be
interested in seventh circle, feel free to send them over here... i plan to add
some of the finished songs from the album real soon.  thank you in advance
for any help!

and thank you all for your patience...

i am almost done with recording... vocals on one more song to record, then
just some fine tuning.  looks like i will be mixing in late march.  there
will be a digital release of the album in april, free of charge with the
option of a small donation.  eventually i will release it on cd, but it may
be a little while.  with the download i will include a pdf with artwork,
lyrics and other info.

thank you everyone for your patience, the wait is almost over... for those
that do not know, i started writing this album in 2002, so it's taken me
about 6 years to complete.  it's gone through many changes and i am very
happy with the way it's sounding.  i know that had i released this a few
years ago as originally planned, it wouldn't have been the album it could
have been... so you could say i have no regrets about it taking so long.

anyway... there is the update... i will keep you posted on everything
as it happens...

take care
ADAM
