Memorable recording sessions

- So if it's possible I'll try to build something in to every session that you'll remember forever. For instance, I've thrown guitars off of cliffs, I've recorded songs in the back of a moving van down Lombard Street in San Francisco. Which is a street that goes like this, and you should have seen the band in the back of the van. And then I've hung singers upside down while they're singing. That was Serge from System of a Down. But I don't think I'm going to do that again because I think I almost killed him. Not a good idea singing upside down like that. Well, screaming upside down. So, I try to do something special with every session. The last project I recorded in a castle in Dresden, Germany. Then moved to a prison for the vocal part of it in Helsinki, on an island in Helsinki. It was like Alcatraz. The Finish version of Alcatraz. And then we finished the album in Gothenburg, Sweden where we recorded this big pipe organ in a church. So, yeah there's plenty of memories with that project. And it seems appropriate for that band to record in a castle because it's a real theatrical metal band and the album is a concept album about a wolf and an owl, and the adventures of the eagle, the evil eagle, and all this stuff. So that's where I'd love to see music, new music to be written and to be recorded in that way. To make some special concept albums that are more than just a collection of songs or singles.
