Excited for this release! Thanks for sharing a behind-the-scenes look at your process-it's a rare treat these days, and I really miss when bands did this more often.
Absolutely! 💯 Yes, I understand that recording behind-the-scenes stuff takes a bit of planning, and editing it all together can be a real pain in the ass... But the end result is so interesting for the fans - and pieces of the band's journey that the band itself might like to revisit later. 😊 Plus, it's always possible that new fans find the band through these videos. (Just like I found Mors Principium Est mostly thanks to Andy's behind-the-scenes videos 😅😅)
15:00 This entire clip is so fucking awesome man, I seriously can't get over how sick your vocals are! I hope you recover well from your back injury and that whole ordeal mate ❤
Can't wait to hear the full album. All the best parts of MPE but with good sounding vocals! Really love these making of videos as well, keep em coming. Cheers!
Andy, I absolutely love Prophecy and can’t wait for the full album. The journey you went on to learn how to scream and then find the tone for the album is so inspiring. You are such a unique talent and the vision you bring to each album is next level. Thanks for being a true artist and bringing everything you have and leaving it all on the table.
This sounds fuckin amazing! I don't want to devalue your previous projects, but personally I missed MPE-Andy a whole lot. So seeing and most of all hearing these snippets gets me hyped up for some gooood stuff to come! Keep it up, man, your shit is always top tier!
I took a sabbatical from asking, but i am now back......"dead winds of hope" playthrough! PLEASE! But no shit for real brother, tough times reveal true character, and yours is true and unwavering. Great, epic things can start off as a tragedy. You no longer have to live in the shadow, you can now cast your own! Keep it up brother, i look forward to your journey!
This is the kind of music I am searching everywhere. I just can’t play it myself. Thx Andy for everything you create for us. I can’t wait to hear the full album. If you ever come in Montreal for a live show, I swear I’ll be there
Stellar!!! Can't wait for the album! (pre-ordered). Your lead work is so melodic and catchy! The first single was phenomenal! Big ups on the vocals, too. Really impressive considering it fits the music / vibe in addition to never doing them before now. I really couldn't tell by listening to it. Cheers! 🔥🤘
These diaries are a grand old time. I'm not privvy to this "Pen Trick" on the mic but I saw a happy doggo shortly after so it doesn't matter 😂 Distributors sound brutal man, even tbough it's a ball ache, it seems you ARE better off doing it yourself, hmmm tricky stuff, something to ponder over a Yorkshire Tea and a Digestive for sure.
@@andygillion It's funny how we human beings work! Just using our brain and imagination to think about some scenario, and suddenly our body finds the muscles and expressions to try to replicate that. 🤔🤔 (Probably some ancient monkey survival skill: being able to copy others)
Love this Studio Diary 1, The album sounds like it's going to be a killer Beast🤘 🔥 fan of your music all the way from DALLAS TEXAS Brother, keep Delivering!
More excited for this album release, than I have ever been for any! The "Prophecy" video was killer, can't wait for the rest of this masterpiece to be unveiled!
@@andygillion I just noticed this little detail @ 3:24. Where can I buy a Shadow Law physical album? I have a digital copy but I would love to own a real one, maybe pass around a few copies, after I financially recover from the Exilium release...
@@andygillion I really appreciate you reaching out to him, it's a great album. Sad you guys got rug pulled on such a great album. No worries either man, I just noticed it and had to ask.
Basically a “fuck you, Ville. I can do this without your ego.” And I love it!
Already sounding better than Ville ever has
Best album of 2024! A complete gem. Andy’s album documentaries are my favorite ones out there, this man is a treasure!
Excited for this release! Thanks for sharing a behind-the-scenes look at your process-it's a rare treat these days, and I really miss when bands did this more often.
I don't know why more bands don't. I feel like the final product isn't the only thing people care about and the process is super interesting
100% Agree @@andygillion

That Deamoness is still one of the nicest guitars I have ever seen all these years later , I still remember the video you did with the song "freak me"
Hahah I rewatched that the other day. Still a good laugh!
YESSS!
Thank you Anthi! 🙏
What's the runtime of the album going to be, Andy?
You're the only person to ask and therefore the only one to find out :D
35 mins 30 secs!

All good dude, I think a lot of people miss that sound so it has been nice to do this again. I had another one in me apparently.

Hey dude, just listened to the new song and I can say that you´re learning extremely fast. Your growls are excellent!
Thank you! 🙏
Absolute Legend. Thank you for being so genuine and authentically you, Andy.
Thanks dude!
Cant go wrong with a doonah mate! 😂
6:58 this guitar looks fantastic
Man, that opening track might be the best thing I've ever heard. Amazing.
Thank you!! Can't wait for the album to drop

Did you double track your acoustic part?
Thanks for letting us in mate, totally appreciate it!
Yeah it's double tracked left and right. Was really happy with the sound I got out of it in the end!
@@andygillion very lush 👌🏼

Gotta keep the doggos happy! Couldn't have tracked these vocals without Yorkshire Tea!
Amazing job! Love watching the candid journey and man, great work.
Thanks Steve!
cheers bro from argentina, i love u and i love mors principium
Sounds amazing mate! And so glad you moved to Australia! Welcome! :)
THEO!!! :D always love these vids and nice on getting that scream right
Theo did a grand job at producing me there. The tiny shoe theory worked a charm!

Sounds great, you and Mendel are my favorite guitarists in the metal scene.
Killing it!!! Can't wait to hear the whole thing!!!! Gracias!!!
Cheers dude! :)
I'm really looking forward to these acoustic guitar parts ❤
Yeah it was refreshing and nice to add some into the mix!
I didn't expect this to come out! But I'm glad it is! ❗️👀. I'm stoked for this.
