Ahab - New Album


Ahoi Seamen,

AHAB will head for studio in february. The mix and mastering will be done by Markus Stock of The Vision Bleak in Studio E (Germany).

To finance a part of the studio, AHAB just posted the last 4 Vinyl Demos of "THE OATH" on ebay Germany.

Here's the news from our Myspace-site:
The money we'll earn from these rare Vinyls will be spent for our next album. So it's YOUR money that will help record the second full length-album of AHAB.
For that, we'll also name you in our thanxlist in the booklet and sign the LP with dedication.
Just got to www.ebay.de and put the following number into the search-engine of ebay. Nr: 180312324520

So spread the news and thank you in advance!
Cheers,
Ahab

Thats a cool way to raise money, being put in the thanx part of the booklet should make a lot of people buy into it.

At least they're not bullshitting us, and it just goes as another argument for us non-downloaders in the "to download or not to download" debate, you buy albums it funds the band.

Either way this should be cool, looking forward to it.

Definitely true. And this way, pretty much all of the money from the sale goes to the band. But it does contribute to the e-bay craze of buying things for ridiculously high prices.

But hey, if it means a new Ahab album, I'm all for it!

At least the fans get something for their money. I've heard of musicians who are signed to a major label and who still beg their fans to send them money, so that they could buy themselves a new PC - without coming up with a new album for half a decade.

Meh, think about it this way: we sit back and let all the rich collectors that need to own every edition of a bands EPs/Albums/Singles/Demos pay for the making of a new album. No skin off my ass, unless the albums turns out to be shit, then I wasted 15-30$, but that looks doubtful, I don't see how they could possibly make such a massive nose-dive.

Remember, that those guys also play in Midnatsoll... so if they start recording music in that vein then we're majorly fucked. I still find it unbelievable that they are that crap in Midnatsoll and so awesome in Ahab.

LOL I didn't know they were members of that band
Weird shit.

But I don't care... they do a fucking great job in Ahab so there must be some kind of balance... Shit in Midnatsol and pure greatness on Ahab.

Hm, I did not know that. I never actually looked into the band members history and what not. Then again, never really checked out Midnatsoll.

So I checked out Midnattsol....I should have taken your word for it. But it makes me laugh, because in the band picture for Midnattsol Daniel Droste looks so unenthused (if that is him on the far left)...like he'd rather be somewhere else.

Hey guys... I heard the vocalist from Ahab is not with the band anymore... Is that true? Because I'm really afraid if that's the case because I found his growls perfect.

And I can't think of anyone else to replace him.
