January 2007

We like to thank everybody who attented  the show in The Bastille in Schoonhoven, we had a great time, thanks again!! Gerardo from Industrialized Metal wrote this about the gig:                                                     I was really looking forward to the Reel show, and at the same time I was pretty curious how the audience would react on their ‘dance metal’ music. It turned out that to none of this was given a negative answer. Reel plays music thats quite uncommon, and catchy at the same time. The mix of dance beats, darkwave sampling and metal guitars was really appreciated by the audience, and as a good bonus they gave us some nice visuals too with lots of blacklight and crazy suits. The songs of the latest album “Modus Operandi” seemed to be the more popular ones; ‘We’ and ‘One Step Back’ caused some serious movements in the crowd, and the band managed to get their enthausiasm into the crowd quite well, which resulted in a very cool performance.

 

Maybe you have noticed it already, we’ve become sort of a bloodbrother with our pal Deadcell from Eindhoven. If you are an agent/promoter or programming bands, check this out:

August  2004

Roland from “Mechanism” has remixed one of our new songs “One Step Back”

 

Although we were very pleased in the way we made ¨Resurrect¨ together with Felix Van Dommelen (alsmost fourth bandmember, producer, live mixer and thé person which acted as soundboard), we decided to take things in our own hands this time.
All the basic tracks (synth, drums, guitars etc) are/were recorded at the Yo! and Cato studio´s, and this time we will record all the vocals at the Cato studio  with the aid of the Yo! mobile recording unit (in the passed these things used to be build into a truck, now it´s no more than a bloody laptop!).
As the Cato studio is situated near the Dutch coast, it provides a very relaxing enviroment to record the vocals this time.
Check the recording progress page, to see how we are progressing.

In the meantime Reel is working on new material. About 18 new tracks will be recorded in the coming months and the new material will be released about spring 2005 (okay okay we will try to speed things up a bit!!)
