1.11.2007 Before the dawning of time there was an entity so vile and disgusting, that no one dare speak it's name. After the invention of time and matter, and 'the big emptiness(tm)', for that matter, it saw many great things. Even greater number of lesser things, such as god complexed singers with delusions of grandeur, ugly bass players with hair growing from the oh so wrong parts of their body. After munching these tiny, insignificant leptons - used as a mild flavor in his morning gruel, he was awe-stricken. The first rays of 'Metaschmorfosis' struck his medulla oblongata with surgical precision. Death was instant, and the cause of death was: 'being killed'. What is this? This is a glimpse of twistedness! This is a beginning of something beaut.... horrible! This is the dawning of the day of aqu.... puke! An ocean of urine with a sea of excrement stuck in there somewhere! By the way, we do take offers to perform at children's parties and such. This is the part where you all ask 'what in the name of arja koriseva are you babbling on about?' Well, how should i know, i just write this shit! Do not ask me! Here's the deal, teh lowdown, my two cents, the whole enchilada: FINALLY THE SINGLE IS DONE. If i'd mention the words 'ahead of schedule' somewhere in this report, the Being(tm) would probably cancel my existence, cause a massive rupture in the time-space continuum and hence, shit itself! Back to reality. So, as zi germans would put it: 'IT'S ON, GODDAMNIT!' So here's a 'todo'-list for all of you: 1. Listen to the songs in the player above. 2. Download the songs, and copy it to your phone, mp3-player, your friends listening equipment and grab a cold one and press 'play'. On all of them. 3. Every, say, half an hour, check back here at schmorf.com AND the myspace pages and wait for the next gig announcement, because courtship is now over, it's time to bump uglies the medieval way. There surely is a big fucking cluster of updates being done right now, so just be prepared! Put your dancing shoes on and 'LET'S GET READY TO MAAAAAAMMMMMBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!'
3.10.2007 The single should have been released a few weeks ago, but for the goodness of our hearts, we allowed Nightwish to grab the spotlight for a second. Would hate to steal their thunder, being their comeback and all. Next gig date is also set, and that will be a great opportunity for us to showcase our mild and conventional tunes and performances outside our own turf. This will also be the public revealing of our new lineup with a new guitar player, and a live keyboard player, as well! So the 5000-pound livesound will get EVEN fatter! Don't miss it, details at the GIGS -page! So, in a few days, a bunch of stuff will be unraveled!
27.8.2007 The first studio release by schmorf is now in the mixing process! We had a raw mix of one of the songs to review, and ohmygod... Crushes like a bulldozer! The quest for a new guitar player is also underway, more of that soon. The webpages will also be renewed to give them the edge they deserve. The pic gallery will undergo the biggest overhaul, with TONS of new pictures included! We are, indeed, on the verge of big things...
20.8.2007 Eetu made the decision to move to another town to go to school there, and here we are one man short of a band! Eetu made great contributions to the band, wrote great pieces of music and had the mental endurance of a zen master to just be around the guys, let alone record take after take in the studio with the band. For that and more, we are eternally grateful. Cheers! The gig played at RockParty (check out GIG INFO) was the last with Eetu, and we are sorry for the man with the stage presence and playing ability comparable with the absolute best, leaving. But some things change and some stay the same! The future of schmorf is looking out to get lively and busy, so on to next things! During this short history of the band, it has come infinitely evident, that you can take the man out of schmorf, but it is down right impossible to take schmorf out of the man. Every former member can be described as 'Full time honorary member for life and beyond'. schmorf wishes all the best to Eetu in his future endeavors! We will meet again!
13.8.2007 These songs will be, of course, added to the audio player on these pages and in the myspage pages. The covers, lyrics and all the additional material will be added here at the exact time of release, so stay tuned!
8.8.2007 The studio equipment have found a new location, and who else to be there than good 'ole schmorf! Guitar doubling, keyboards and vocals are in line next. This means a few weeks, and we are a launch. So get ready! Studio diaries for details! The next gig was set to 18.8, so next week everyone gather at English Pub for some radio hits and mainstream beautiful earcandy!
27.7.2007 Number of songs to be completed is 12, with any luck 13. Some final segments will be recorded before mixing and mastering, namely vocals and keyboards/programming. This means the deadline comes too soon. A new deadline will not be set, but as things progress they will be updated here!
21.6.2007 The list of tracks which will be cut is not totally clear yet, but the first demo will be re-recorded, now with the equipment the songs deserve! After that, focus will be turned towards the newer, even more sickly compositions of music. This means, there will be some studio songs for you to enjoy (yeah right...) by the end of july. That being said, the number of songs to record will be anything from 5 to 15, plus maybe a few easter eggs that no-one can predict... And of course, a studio diary will be updated every day while the project is ongoing. The live recordings will be up for grabs in the next few days, to get a little teaser from the new stuff created. So, as always, visit the website for updates!
12.6.2007 For all you on the mailing list, i might inform you that a special surprise is being set up to all of you! So join the mailing list and stay tuned to all things schmorf!
9.6.2007 The gig was perfect and beyond, read more about it at the gig info page. Now here's the lowdown on what happened behind the scenes. The whole gig was recorded with an eye on quality, audio and video both. This means some live tunes will be incorporated in the mp3player on these pages, and probably to be downloaded also. Some video clips will also have some spots in schmorfTV, the only channel with absolutely NO commercial breaks! The still pictures will of course be added to the pics page in the near future. So a lot is being worked on then added here in the world of zeros and ones! The whole gig will be a part of the DVD, with best quality, naturally. So for all these updates, stay tuned!
28.5.2007 Because of the amount of material we have, we will probably spend some time there, so at the end of summer we should have a lot of recorded songs for you to enjoy! The gig will be recorded also, so the DVD is being filled up with sickening footage at a nice speed, too. Check out this part of the pages to stay in the loop for next moves!
25.5.2007 20.1.2008 4.4.2007 This means tons of rehearsing, and the filming of some songs at the Church of the Unholy, rehearsal live, if you may.
25.4.2007 schmorf's first bass player Caala has been replaced by an individual called Johnny Fakk. Caala contributed to the band, and we wish him the best in all aspects of life. We hope you make it big time! Johnny Fakk is learning the songs as we speak, and is going to be a great addition to the band! To learn more about this certain one, visit his bio! A lot of new masterpieces are being completed, and next plans are to play gigs, record more material, both audio and video. Stay tuned!
31.3.2007
20.3.2007 First off, the studio visit was good and we produced nice drum tracks, as explained in the 'studio diary'-section. But one little minor thingamajiggy we realized was that the songs we're not ready. Which kind of makes things difficult in the process we call recording... But now the tunes are better than ever, some have gone through a more extensive overhaul, while some were just fine tuned a wee bit. Now we have some editing to do, after what we're going to record the rest. We've reserved a few days for editing, so the recording should start no later than next week. I might add that our guitar players are fully capable of cutting 1-2 tracks a day (no pressure, boys!), so by the end of the month we should have a few songs up and running here at our website and our first demo. I have to remind you that the material we have consists of at least 5-10 songs outside of the demo tracks, so expect more songs within a short period of time. Also, expect some minor changes to the website, for example a new feature called 'schmorfTV', some lyrics and tabs for the songs, and so forth. So stay tuned!
11.1.2007 This means also lots of updates to this site, mostly, as mentioned, the studio diary, the lyrics section, videos, pictures, well, most of the sections, and the updates will be daily. Almost, if not. The plan is to record 6-7 of our own songs, and probably 1-2 covers also. All of the songs will equal our first EP, working name is 'Control pt. 4'. That name will change. The core of the EP will make a demo, the working name there is 'Magical Experience, the extraordinary expulsion of endotermic effervescent'. That name will probably stay with it. The DVD in progress right now will take you on a tour to the slimy bowels of schmorf, and will feature at least 1 music video, interviews, outtakes from rehearsals, the trailer to 'schmorf - the movie', tons of pictures, a featurette 'schmorf - the making of the (fi)(wo)rst band in history', and lots more. I would like to point out that we are very modest in our doings, but you already know that! Stay tuned for updates!
8.1.2007 The bad news is there has been some evil force controlling the universe for at least a split second, because schmorf is heading for studio sessions shortly! Before you start to cry, here's the bad part. We will be recording quite a few tunes for a demo AND an EP, but also making a dvd (poor, poor you), so the times are getting definitely worse! Stay tuned for a studio diary also! Here we are rubbing our hairy hands together, because a lot is happening!
