Order Of Ennead In The Studio




Order Of Ennead's Steve Asheim Tracking "This Mortal Journey"

Day 1
Nov 4th 2009

Here we are at Audio Hammer recording our second album. It doesn't seem like over a year that we were here doing our first one. Steve and I drove up to Orlando, leaving Tampa around 11am. We strolled into the studio around 1pm and met up with Mark Lewis, who will handling producer/engineer and all other duties. Jason Suecof and Rondo were also at the studio doing their thing. Today consisted of just setting up the drums and getting some sounds.

Day 2
Nov 5th 2009

Got started late, around 4pm today. Mark went to the gym early and then there was a shooting in Orlando and he got stuck in the traffic. Some a-hole started shooting at an office building. Doesn't he know we are trying to record an album over here? I laid down scratch guitars for all 9 songs before we started the drums. I had the click times figured out ahead of time and I've played these songs a million times so they went by pretty quickly. We tracked 7 songs today on drums and will leave two for tomorrow. Drums are sounding killer so far and we expect it to sound massive by the time we are done. Got some video of Steve tracking drums that I'll eventually get to posting. There's a bear that comes around the studio sometimes and it was here tonight, but I didn't get to see it. Found out too late. I will see this bear before we leave this time!!!!  Watched some "Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia" in the main house tonight. KILLER!!

Tracked drums for: This Mortal Journey, Conduits To Eternity, Scriptures Of Purification, Lies Upon The Lips Of Judas, A Portal To Rapture, An Examination Of Being and ...in the mirror.

Day 3
Nov 6th 2009

Another awesome night of sleeping on the floor of the studio. Oh I love big budget projects. hahahha!!!  Got started late again because that's just what we do. Did the last two songs and gave a couple a listen before we headed back to Tampa. Mark Lewis will begin editing drums and give us a call when its time to come back. (we don't head back to record until Nov 15th, Mark was sick a couple days, Steve had some things to do over the weekend, so I went to Morrissound Studios in Tampa and sat there while my friends in Immanifest mixed their demo. Sounds killer and I even did some backing vocals on it.)

Tracked drums for: The Concept Of Our Extinction and A Betrayal Of Self

Day 4
Nov 15th 2009

Drove back to the studio today with Steve. Took a couple hours to figure out which guitar we were going to track with. Ended up going with a Jackson Soloist, Marshall cab and EVH 5150 III. Tracked left and right guitar for two songs today and then we listened to all of the drum tracks again to make sure everything sounded perfect before Steve left to go back to Tampa for a couple days. Songs sound really good at this point. I'm tracking riff by riff, first with the right guitar and then the same riff with the left guitar instead of all one side and then the other. I like this better, then I can hear all of the harmonies instantly to make sure everything works.

Not a lot of riffs in this song, but it doesn't take a lot to
make an entertaining song. Arrangement and structure
are just as important as the riff. Also changing the drum
pattern over a riff can add some life and prevent
monotony. Just my opinions, of course. I always hear a lot
about how to play guitar or how to shred, but not a lot about
how to write a song.

Over the next week I'll be finishing this up.

ORDER OF ENNEAD SUMMER UPDATE

We are taking a break right now after touring for 9 weeks on our self titled debut album for Earache Records. We do plan on recording our next album before the end of the year, just waiting for some info from the label before we get started. The album is already done in pre-production form so the studio "should be" a smooth experience.

We plan on using Audio Hammer Studios again with Mark Lewis (Black Dahlia Murder, Trivium) pressing buttons and yelling at us. The cover will be handled by Patrick Pidoux, who plays drums in Swiss band Sludge and also did the cover for Samael's Above album. 

I'd like to thank all of the bands we toured with including Devian, Samael, Deicide, Vader, Vital Remains, The Amenta, Sludge, Tribulation and Massive Music. We enjoyed touring for our first album and look forward to more for our second release.

Here is the track listing:

Icons Of Evil Euro Tour

Day 1  Travel day. Oh the joys of waiting at airports they are endless and not worth mentioning.



Day 2  Had the day to walk around Amsterdamn before the bus picked us up. Met up with Dave Kinkade (drummer supreme) and checked out some coffee shops and walked around the red light district. Good times. Caught up with the Vital guys roaming around the same section of town, who knew? Took a picture with Darth Vader, the Netherlands version. He's slightly thinner and has an accent, probably blonde hair too. Around 6pm we went back to the airport to meet up with Massive Music and the guys in Tribulation.

Day 3 Julet, Belgium @ Maison De Tous. Got to the venue around noon. Its in the shadow of an average sized church. Nice venue, has a gym type of feel to it. Checked out Tribulation and Sludge also. Sludge showed up a couple hours before they were suppose to go on. Their singer works in a hospital and told us a story about a sex change he witnessed. Female to male. I told him I want a different story every night they are on the bill. Night ended at 3am when the club finally told everyone to leave.

Day 4 Groningen, Netherlands @ Vera. Before the show we walked around the city. Its like a mini-Amsterdamn. Its pretty nice. Good show and another good show in the Netherlands. After the show Scott and I walked down the street and got a Doner. Its a Turkish thing thats pretty much everyone here. Sliced meat right in front of you. Good stuff.

Day 5 Essen, Germany @ Turok. Ulik, the bass player from Sludge bought Scott and myself hamburger action today. Show went well and even met some people that saw us in January in Bochum. They started a chant for us "Book Again". That was cool. There was an after party following the show until 6am. Man was that a mistake. All I will say is some people were drunk, some were bloody and the entire tour almost got thrown out of the club. Having 4 bands with near endless beer on tour is probably not a good idea.

Day 6 Amersfort, Netherlands @ De Kelder. Hung out with Dave Kinkade, drummer for Borknagar, today and his girlfriend Sophie. They took us to Burger King and after seeing Indian food on the menu again I was happy. Show went well eventhough it was an early show. We went on around 5 because it was a Sunday. Bus driver showed off his great driving skills tonight by backing up the bus and trailer.  Feel safe with him driving every night.



Day 7 and 8. Days off near Fort Boyard, France. No shows booked for two days so we hung around southern France for two days. The bus parked about 3 miles from the center of town. There was food close by, but it was expensive. Had pizza everyday that was actually very good. Bought the guys in Tribulation crepes. A must in my opinion for anyone visiting France. Everyone got drunk for two days and some enjoyed very fresh oysters.



Day 9 Nantes, France @ Le Ferrailleur.  Cool venue right on the water. Scott and I walked to a nearby church. We also saw a very large mechanical elephant that you could ride. Strange. Its been very hot the last couple of days and everyone's getting sunburnt. Show was especially good tonight. Great response for all of the bands and just a great time. Stage was very hot tonight though. I didn't even see an airconditioning duct in the place. It was killer. Good night though.



Day 10 Durango, Spain @ Platerunia. Got to town early and walked around by myself and then later with Eric from Vital and then again with the drummer and bass player of Sludge. Nice town. Spain is beautiful with its architecture and atmospher. Sound of stage was awesome tonight and we were told it sounded great from the crowd also. The crowd is another story though. Just week. They just stood there and golf clapped most of the night, even for Vital which is crazy. Just a very inactive crowd, but the promoter says the crowds have been like that lately. Off to Madrid manana.


Day 11 Madrid, Spain @ Ritmos & Compas. We had to walk over 100 yards to load in the gear today. Awesome. Did I mention it was up a small hill also? I got to shave today so that was something. Found a great guitar shop right down the street from the venue that everyone loved. It had everything you could imagine. Some were trying the Laboga heads that Hate Eternal raves about. The show was KILLER. Great response. When we started playing The Culling a slight cheer erupted. It was great, especially after the crowd in Durango was so cold.

Day 12 Murcia, Spain @ Nave8.  A bunch of people are hungover today. What a shock! As soon as we stopped at the venue I went walking. Not much to see since the venue is in an industrial area. I did find a Burger King and the almight Mountain Dew today and I even took a nice shower. Man you appreciate some strange things on the road. Updating a tour blog for instance. John and I played a game of foozeball with the Swedes. I would recommend not doing that. We got slaughtered. Oh well, soccer isn't our sport in the US anyway.  Later that night we played the again when they were drunk and that didn't go well either. They were high and might until the Swiss came into the picture. Patrick and Makro from Sludge destroyed the Swedes and won the coveted world cup.

Day 13 Barcelona, Spain @ Mephisto. Got to the city early and Marko from Sludge/Samael was going to show us around. We started with 19 of us going into the city. Markro did the whole tour guide thing, it was really nice of him. He's originally from Spain and now lives in Switzerland.  Barcelona is a great city and I want to go back for sure. Saw the Columbus monument and were all of the shops are located. John Li, myself and Sergie from Sludge went to Segrada Familia after the others wanted to go back to the bus. Well this was worth the entire day. Its a church they've been building for over a hundred years and they aren't even close yet to being finished. Its grand and totally over the top. After that we had McDonalds. I know, but sometimes you want something your familiar with so screw off. Oh yeah, the crowd was very weak and barely responded. Just like the Durango crowd. So every other show in Spain is good.



Day 14 Marseille, France @ Le Local 013. At first we couldn't find the club. There is no sign on the building and its an industrial park. Its one of these venues you pull up to and say "What the hell is this place?" Then later you play the show and its killer. Walked around a bit and not a thing to see here. We are miles away from the city. Great show though and all were drunk and taking pictures with all of the beautiful French ladies.

Day 15 Milan, Italy @ Musicdrome. This place use to be called Transylvania Live and I heard about it the last tour. Scott, our bass player lived around here years ago also. Not much to do in this section of town and its raining. Posters advertise Cradle Of Filth playing the next night and this show was originally suppose to be in Turin so we aren't sure how the turnout will be. There weren't many people at the show, but the ones who were there were really into it so that helps get us pumped up. After load out, which was in the rain, a soccer game busts out in the venue with a half empty water bottle. Soon after they ask us to leave, ironic?

Day 16 Prattlern, Switzerland Z7. This venue is killer. Multiple showers, bathrooms with toilet paper, great food and enough for everyone, great sound on stage and we get to play the show with the mighty Sameal. We did two weeks with them this past January and they are a great live band and we really get along with these guys very well. Its also Sludges last day on the tour who we've really had a great time getting to know. We met up with some friends who take us into Basel, the city about 15 minutes away and check it out. I didn't expect much, but at Vorph from Samael told me it was one of his favorite Swiss cities, I got interested. It didn't disappoint. It was very interesting. Later the show went fantastic and then most of the bands watched Samael. Some had never seen them and Scott and myself have been talking them up all tour. They were awesome as usual and it was really nice to see them again. It was just a great day all together and I forgot to mention this place has a washer and dryer. That should say it all. End of the night we say our goodbyes to Sludge and take a huge tour photo on the stage. We'll be in touch with these guys for sure.

Day 17 Bologna, Italy @ Sottotetto. Another of those industrial park venues that we aren't sure how the turnout will be. Really in the middle of nowhere. I take out my guitar early and work on some arrangement for future albums. When we start playing there is no one around and then all of a sudden about 100 people are around. After the first couple of songs I ask where the hell they all came from. It ended up being a really good show and they have a hot shower for afterwards. That always makes the experience better. Owner of the club liked us a lot and all things were great in the world.

Day 18 Day Off in Hauzenberg, Germany @ Burger Park for the Walpurgus Metalfest. The only band that is playing the fest is Vital Remains. Tribulation and OOE got added to the tour late and therefore didn't get on the bill. Well this sucks since there are about 2000 people at the fest. Really irritating and the line-up for the first day of the fest wasn't very interesting. Second day had Vader, Sinister and Enthroned which would have been fine, but we were there the first day only. Vader did show up early though and we got to hang out with them. We me them this past January and they are great guys. I asked Peter about the new album and their deal with Nuclear Blast. They should get a good push from their new label. The day ended up being rather sucky, but at least we got free food and admission to the fest.

Day 19 Vienna, Austria @ Escape Metalcorner. When we first headed to Vienna I was excited because its a great city with plenty of history to it, especially with classical music.  Well the part of town the club is in was far from that I was really disappointed. Its were the brothels and graffiti litter the buildings. Great. I decide to take a nap and Kaish and Eric from Vital Remains tell me how they walked twenty minutes in the other direction and saw some awesome sites. So John Li and myself get to it. Its John's 20th birthday today also. We start walking and about 20 minutes later its what I though Vienna would be. Great museums and buildings everywhere. We walked for about 2 hours and took pics of everything. Along with Barcelona this is the best city to walk around so far. I bought John McDonalds for his birthday and when we get back to the venue we go on just over an hour later.  Glad we headed back when we did or we would have missed the show. Very small stage today, but the people are into it. The stage was so small I kept hitting my guitar head on something and knocking it out of tune and Scott had a PA amp right by his head. John almost knocked me in the head a couple of times too with his guitar. Another hot shower makes this day rule.



Day 20 Nova Gorica, Slovenia @ Mostovna. Walked around the city with Jacob from Tribulation and John today. Got some Italian ice cream. Venue is right acroos the street from the old iron curtain. Nice view of the mountains. Venue outside. Show went well, but I wasn't into much tonight. Monotony of the road setting in, but everyone liked the show. Did an interview afterwards with someone I did one for on-line months ago. Some women hanging around backstage. What does that mean?

Day 21 Day off in Nova Gorica, Slovenia. Promoter was nice and let us stay at the club for our day off. Walked down to the river, got some food at a restaurant. Not much to do here, but nice setting with the mountains in the background. Showers and use of the kitchen a plus. Needed a day off.



Day 22 Budapest, Hungary @ Durer Kert. Best catering of the tour today. Walked across the street to a replica castle in the park also with a bunch of guys. Lord Of The Rings references abound. Saw Heroes Park and it was pretty impresive. Tribulation and Vital head back for soundcheck that never happens. John and I walk around for hours and see the awesesome Parliment building right on the water. Talked to two Hungarian guys all night about the country, economy, their currency and a bunch of interesting topics. This was my least favorite show though. Only two lights in the venue and they are flashing the entire set. Couldn't see a thing and I broke a string. Steve did a drum solo while waiting and the crowd liked it. For Vital they told them not to mess with the lights. Really horrible when you can't see a thing on stage. Made the most of it though.





Day 23 Cluj Napoca, Romania @ Irish Music Pub. We are in Transylvannia. Walked around the city and its not very inviting. Scott and I got stared at A LOT. Went to McDonalds and a security guard pretty much followed us around. I don't know what he thought we'd do? Show was pretty killer though. Needed a good one, after what I considered two sub-par shows on my part. Eventhough Romania is part of the EU they still have a border check and this one just consisted of checking passports. Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria all still have their own currency. Good luck trying to change most of these back in EU and the US. Really cool venue too. All made of brick and had a bomb shelter feel to it. Diabolical from Sweden was also on the bill tonight and will be tomorrow also. Nice to see a different band here and there.

Day 24 Bucharest, Romania @ Studio Martin. Walked around the city and it wasn't what I expected. I was hoping for more like Vienna, but it wasn't. More inviting then Cluj though, but still seem suspicious of us walking around. Interesting venue. The stage is layered with the drums two steps up from the vocal area and the guitar and bass sections one step up. Theres also metal bars in front of the stage. Felt like Iron Maiden on stage with all of the jumping around I was doing. When you touch John's pedal and the metal bars you get shocked also. Found that out the hard way. Lighting is wierd here too. Lights all over the ceiling. Think this is more of a disco then place for bands, but it sounded killer and we had a great show. Some kids in the front made it all worth it.



Day 25 Sophia, Bulgaria @ The Blue Box. Walked around the city and its ok. Not much of the old architecture that I enjoy. Scott loved it because everything is in Russian. They had a symphony playing at noon and then another metal show at seven and then our show at nine. All in the same venue and you had to leave and pay for each event. Pretty strange really.  We find out during Tribulations set that this will be the last show. Both of the Croatia shows got canceled.  Most of us are ready to go home anyway, but cancellations suck. During Tribulations set I went out and did some vocals with them. Its a part that goes "From the seed of Belial, he rises. Nosferatu, the vampire". Our set was killer. One of the best shows of the tour and the crowd was really into it. During Conferring With Demons I almost passed out during the long vocal part. I held it out longer then usual and with the heat and the lights and the short breathe the room was going black, but I recovered and it was awesome. No one pranked us, which usually happens the last show, but we were all kind of bummed it was going to be our last and with suck short notice. During Vital's set we all the bands went up during "Hammer The Nails" and the crowd went crazy. After the show about 50 people wanted pics and autographs. Some of the kids even wanted us to come back and headline. Hopefully in the future.

Day 26 Driving. Eventhough yesterday was the last night we still need to get to the airport in Croatia for Tribulation and Vienna for OOE and Vital. We drive to the Bulgarian border and have to show our passports to leave the country. Then entering Serbia we have to do the same. Well they aren't part of the EU and it shows. It took about 2 hours and they didn't want to let us in at first because of the swine flu. So they took, just the Americans, off the bus to be looked over by a doctor. Well we all joked later that none of us even thought the guy was a doctor. He had a white lab coat on and just handed us papers about the swine flu. Pretty much a joke. The landscape of this country is beautiful and Scott and myself stay up for a couple hours checking it out.

Day 27 Driving. We leave Serbia and enter Croatia. Border is a little smoother because Croatia wants to become part of the EU and they have a lot of coastline therefore a lot more money. Nice lookig country, but we are just driving through. We drop off Tribulation and Oscar the soundguy from Holland at the airport. We had a great time with these guys and will miss them immensely. They tried teaching me Swedish, but I remember none of it. At one point I'd open up a Swedish dictionary and try to pronounce the word and they would laugh at how bad it was. Sometimes though couldn't even understand what word I was saying. It got even better when John Li would right down some Mandaran. Leaving Croatia the border patrol was a dick. Michael, one of the Polish crew guys, has an old passport from when he was 16 so the guy takes it and questions him. Just a douche. Getting into Slovenia is easy. They are part of the EU so its like, "Hey welcome back to being treated like a person again". We get dropped off in Vienna with the Vital guys and say bye to Massive Music.

Day 28 Vienna Sightseeing. Well I had a mission today. I was going into town to see the city and if someone wanted to come along then lets go. It ended up being myslef, John, Scott and Kaishe from Vital. Well we had a great time. Saw everything. Museuem with old armore, ancient instruments and Roman remains. The Paliament, many statues of Goethe(he wrote Faust) and Mozart. John and I went to the Sigmund Fraud museum. Since John studies psychology it was cool for him eventhough he prefers Jung. We had a really fun and exhausting day. Ended with a nice Doner Kabob, which are awesome and really all over Europe.



Day 29 Travel day. Got dropped off at the airport. Said by to Vital. We toured 9 weeks this year already and 7 of them were with these guys so we all bounded well and wish to do more shows with them in the future. OOE flew from Vienna to London to Washington. We had  12 hour layover in Dulles and it sucked. The customs was the fastest I've ever been through though.  We all slept on chairs just waiting for our flight.

Day 30 Finally make it home. See my fiancee and puppy. Then I start working on this blog. Sergie from Sludge got some good footage of us and we might be able to use some of it for a DVD. We'll see. We had a great time on this tour. Thanks to Tony and Vital Remains, Tribulation, Sludge and Massive Music. We hope to do a lot more shows in the future. Thanks to all the fans that came out and supported us too. You guys make it all worth it.

Day 1  This day just involved driving in a very cramped van with three bands in it. A couple hours in we got a flat tire on the trailer and had to put gear on the backseat to make it even more spacious(sarcasm). Glen and Steve did the driving and we appreciate all Deicide has done for us.

Day 2 Got to the venue early so the gang head to Applebee's. John Li, Josh the sound man, and myself head for Chinese. Show went well even though it sounded horrible on stage and the lights were right in my face the entire set. Some guys from Earache came to the show and only one of them introduced themselves to me. Whats up that that? I'm also selling merch for Deicide so I didn't get to see any of the bands play tonight. Oh well, blogs are made for bitching.

Day 3 Drove to Providence, RI. Found some cheap, but good calzones before they show. The show was killer. Great crowd and our best merch day for any of our shows so far. We'd love to go back and the owner of the club even mentioned having us again. After our set I might have said something negative about the NY Yankees, but I can't remember. Don't get mad NY, its only baseball. Oh yeah, GB got on stage with Vital to do Dechristinize tonight, it was killer.

Day 4 After the show we drove all the way to Virginia because the Hartford show got canceled. It wasn't our fault, the promoter was shady and screwed up the night. Upon arrival in VI, everyone got separate hotel rooms and I'd see random people walking around during the evening. Its only been a couple days, but we all needed a break from each other, in my opinion. Scott and I downloaded Heroes and watched it. KILLER. John Li and I also got some Magic The Gathering games in. He kicked my ass every time. I'll have my revenge. If I can't beat him, I'll unplug his guitar on stage one night.

Day 5 Got up and went to the venue early. Still had to wait around for the promoter to get there. Crowd was cold for the first couple of bands. I had to get them going before Vital and Deicide got up there tonight. By the end of our set we had won over most of them. Couple guys renting a car tonight and that will make the van a lot more spacious. Things are going well.

Day 6 Drove to Chicago all day. Stayed in Milan, Ohio. Just three weeks ago we were in Milan, Italy. I'll tell you Italy was a lot nicer then Ohio. Went down to the restaurant and ran into the Adrift guys. Had pasta.

Day 7 Played The Pearl Room. Great club and the best catering we've had the entire tour. It was my 34th birthday today. Talk of finding the new Lost episode on-line. Crowd was into us. Heard about someone getting beat up in the dressing room. Stayed at hotel across the street. Almost the entire tour went to Denny's. Horrible service. We were there about two hours. GB bought my food, damn should have went for the steak.

Day 8 Heading to Detroit. People have a lot to say about Detroit,  but everyone says not to walk outside the venue. There have been a lot of shootings and stabbings and things at this place. We got to the venue late, about five, and the doors were already open. Had about 40 kids waiting for Deicide merch while I was setting up the booth. Tony, from Vital, and I later commented on how crazy it was the first hour. While loading in I fell down the stairs and got a nice bruise. It will match the other one I got the night before from banging my hand on my guitar at the end of our set each night. Set went well and we sold some cds. We were in a rush to get out of this place. Catering was awful and all I got was two pieces of pizza. Sound guy  lost power to my pedal so I didn't have guitar for half a song and then he kept screwing up my monitor, but the show went well besides that. Scott was doing some heavy duty World Of Warcraft tonight in the dressing room, that I never even saw.

Day 9 Drove all day through IN, IL, IA and finally stopped in Nebraska for the night. Finally got to watch this weeks Lost episode and going to watch Battlestar Galactica right after typing this. Its 1am and we are leaving at 8am, but I still need to shave, shower and change strings. I change them about every fifth show. Talk about booking more tours and shooting a video when we get home. Its 22 degrees outside. Heard Florida was 70 today. That would be nice.
 

Day 10 Aurora, CO today. Show was ok. Bar served me a chicken sandwich that wasn't cooked in the middle. Glad I split it in two before eating. Saw from old friends from Tampa. Drunks hanging around as soon as door opened. Promoter left early. Two tires on the van got slashed today. Great. Glen was pissed and bitching about going home. Calmed down after awhile. Had to sit around the venue for hours waiting to get the tires fixed. Steve took care of it all in stride. Isn't touring wondering?

Day 11 Salt Lake City today. Good club. GB pissed at the sound guy again. Owner of the club is really cool. Last time Deicide played around here someone got stabbed and they could only play three songs. This time everything went well.  We'd like to come back to this place.

Day 12 Farmington, NM today. The club is on or close to a reservation. People loved the metal here. Club owner and promoter want a nice cut of merch, but only did a buy out for food. Rather tense night (again). John Li and myself walk to McDonalds while Deicide is playing. GB had me pull their merch early so I actually had some time to do nothing. It was great.

Day 13 Another one of those all day driving days. The routing on this tour is awful. Couldn't ask for much worse. Jack and Ralph are taking some people in their rental car so that frees up a bit of space in the van. While driving through CA Glen feels the need to roll the windows down while passing a cow farm with about a thousand cows and their manure. It wakes you up. When we pass into Cali everyone gets up. Something cool about California. Some nice drives while there.

Day 14 San Jose, CA. Packed house. Met one of the guys from Deeds Of Flesh at the show. Just a solid show and a cool venue. Cali crowds are really bringing it. Small stage though. John and I start joking about invading each others personal space on stage and have a hand sign to signify it. We start doing this the rest of the tour.

Day 15 Yucaipa, CA. This place is about an hour and a half from LA, but people from LA don't come here and people from here don't go to LA. This is more of the redneck section of California. The place we play is a Roadhouse grill. I ordered my food and it took about an hour. People who ordered after mine got their food first. It was only a roast beef sandwich and not worth the wait. Owner of the place is really cool though. Crowd stayed away from us a bit. I don't know if they just don't know the songs or hate my vocals, but I don't really care either.

Day 16 The Key Club, Hollywood. Get the venue early for a change. John Li, myself and Kaish from Vital Remians ran into Dave Attell on the street and took some pics. He is hilarious. Talk of Steve-O from Jackass being at the show and he ended up introducing Deicide. Great show, but very frustrating night. With the singer of Adrift sick there was no one to watch merch while OOE was playing. A lot of tension going on between and within bands today. This is Deicide's last date of the tour and GB and Ralph are flying out the next day. Cool, more room in the van. With Vital and Deicide having about 10 designs each, its tough selling our merch. Night ended with five of us being locked out of the van with it running and getting cold. Oscars were in town tonight and talk of Oscar partys. I just wanted someone to come and watch the merch so I could play the set without a bunch of bitching.

Day 17 Tempe, AZ. Our first date with just Vital Remains. We've started bonding with the guys and having a good time with them. We were suppose to play right before Vital, but there is some local band that is suppose to bring a crowd. Well they didn't and ended up sucking pretty bad also. Met up with a couple of the guys from Job For A Cowboy tonight. I originally met these guys when I was playing with Deicide in Mexico City. They just happened to be playing the night after us. We did our thing and it was fun. Found out Adrift is going home and taking Josh, the sound guy. Five of them in a small car. Ended up taking them about three days to get home. WOW! Great, more room in the van. Now its just the four of us and James, Steve's drum tech and acting tour manager.

Day 18 El Paso, TX. Well we started hearing we might be on the bill the night before and ended up not playing. Promoter, booking agent blah blah blah. Had the night off, but still stayed around the venue just in case we could play. Walked with John and Scott to get some Italian.

Day 19 Albuquerque, NM. The Launch Pad is the venue tonight. Went down to the Black Bird to eat with the band. Good show. Not too far of a drive tomorrow. Got a room at Motel 6. We use the GPS to find a Denny's. The Denny's is closed so we drive to McDondalds. We use the GPS to find our way back to the hotel. We walk up to our room and put in the key, well it doesn't work. We find out its the wrong Motel 6. I start laughing my ass off. We use the GPS and it brings us to another Motel 6 that isn't ours. Drive around and we end up back at the other Motel 6 and then again at the other wrong Motel 6. James, the drum tech, is pissed, Eric from Vital is getting annoyed and John Li is just sitting in the back. I am laughing the entire time. We finally get back to the right hotel after jumping on two interstates. We still don't know what happened.

Day 19 Amarillo, TX. Cool place. Use to be a swingers club and there are rooms were you could "get together in the venue". Unusual amount of pregnant women at the show tonight. I make the comment that we are not responsible because this is our first time in Texas, but next time you never know. Good merch day and the crowd seemed to really enjoy the show. Long drive tonight to McAllen, here its about 15 hrs.

Day 20 McAllen,TX. That drive sucked and we find out the venue has changed and we are headling the show also. There is no stage and it has a very old school hardcore feel to it because of this. Not a problem for me. We still killed it and the fans were right in front of us. Everytime John Li backed up they would come closer. Right after the show we head to Denny's, then sleep and by 11 am we are on the way home. Its about a 24 hr drive.

Day 21 I got first shift driving. Went fine until we hit around Houston. Trailer tire started to wobble because it had a bubble in it. About an hour later the spare blew out so we had to put the tire with the bubble back on to find a place to get a tire. Its 4pm on Saturday so we are skeptic that anything will be open. We found a Goodyear that was open and were back on the road soon. Scott drove and it was scary. Too much NY in him to drive. Then Steve drove and finally James. I think we hit a dog or opposum sometime iin the morning. I slept the entire way home.

All in all it was a fun tour, but a lot of frustration. This is definately paying our dues. With how smooth the Euro tour was, this was the complete opossite.Trying to book more US and Euro tours, but nothing booked yet. Thanks to everyone who came to see us and all of the bands and promoters. We will return soon.

Day 1 013 Tilburg
Arrived at the airport on January 8th and quickly got into the bus and headed two hours to Tilburg. Within a couple hours of being at the venue it was time to go on. After party was pretty intense with meeting everyone and settling in. Show went well. Man those Polish dudes in Vader can drink.

Day 2 Haarlem Patronaat
Drove to Haarlem. John Li and myself got up early and checked out an old cathedral. The new drummer of Arsis, Dave Kinkade, came to the show and we hungout. Show went very well and we were sounding tight. That warm up show in Tampa really payed off. Hanging out with the guys in the Amenta a lot and also talking to Legion from Devian, great guy. Ralph Santola uses every chance to give John Li hell. Its hilarious.

Day 3 Vosselaar Biebob
Another good show. Gave some pics to Legion to post on the Massive Music blog. Also wondered the streets with John Li and the drummer from The Amenta, Frog. Some guy recognized us from the show and set his phone down beside us. There was a video playing with a lady and horse. You can figure out the rest. I don't know why he thought we'd enjoy that.

Day 4 Paris La Loco
Started the day with load in and then went to the Louvre with Ralph, Legion, Devian's bass player, John Li and the singer of the Amenta. We had about two hours to run through it and it was awesome. Saw the Venus De Milo and the Mona Lisa. Played a killer show. After that I hit the Eiffel Tower with a couple guys from the Amenta and John Li. On the way got some pics of the Arc Du Triumphe. Had some crepes and they ruled.

Day 5 Lyon CCO
Woke up and wanted McDonalds. This guy, Gregory, that works for the venue walked me there. It took about twenty minutes both ways and I really appreciated him walking that far just for a burger. The venue is in the middle of the suburbs so there wasn't much to do. After we play, the waits seem to be getting longer and they days are starting to blend together. The crew they have working the tour is doing a great job.

Day 6 Esch/Alzette Rockhal
As soon as we hit the Lux border there was nothing but factorys around. The venue is in between a railroad track and an old factory. There is a mall that seems very out of place within walking distance and isn't that interesting. The crowd tonight was very dead. I had to resort to taunting them to get any kind of reaction. The Stuttgart date has been so we are going to have an unscheduled day off. Not sure were we'll be going, but I hope we park somewhere that we can do something entertaining.

Day 7 Off In Frankfurt
The Stuttgart show got canceled so we had the day off in Frankfurt. Spent the day walking around with John Li and some guys from the Amenta. It wasn't the most interesting city in the world. While waiting at the train station Jarod from the Amenta ended up getting stuck talking to a meth-head. I could have interrupted, but it was funny. We ate a good Italian restraurant. Later that night met up with about five others including the guitarist for Samael. Ate at a Thai Restaurant and headed back to the bus.

Day 8 Frankfurt Batschkapp
Another good show. We've been very consistant.  Our best merch day so far. Germans like to get really drunk at shows, but they also support the bands a lot with cheering and fist pumping. This is something Luxemboring needs to learn. Backstage is very cramped and not very much room for 6 bands.

Day 9 Bochum Matrix
This club use to be a brewery and its all brick and shaped like a tube.
Sounded good when no one was in the room, but when it filled up the
sound went downhill.
Great meal for dinner today, turkey with mushroom and cream sauce. Very cool backstage also with posters all over the walls. Took a very cold shower on arrival. I guess Europe hasn't discovered warm water yet. After Paris, this was the worst load-in. Too many steps and we had to wait for people to leave to load-out.

Day 10 Erstfeld Transilvania Live
Switzerland is beautfiul and the club is huge. I walked around for about two hours by myself. The town was small, but right in the mountains. When I got back to the club I met up with two friends. They took me into town and I had Italian food. Lunch sucks on tour. You get nothing, but lunch meat, cheese and bread so if I can find a McDonalds, i go. I never eat there at home, but its something I know. Biggest crowd of the tour was tonight. Glen Benton decided to throw fruit at us tonight. During their set he said "No one had the balls back there to throw anything?" So I immediately grabbed some apples and tossed away. I had too for the honor of the tour. Started getting bored after our show so I played along to the Deicide set in the back. Anything to break up the monotony.

Day 11 Milan Rolling Stone.
Got up and had to get out of the bus right away. It was a drop off and the bus was going to park a couple blocks away. Everyone was tired and with a small backstage trying to find room to sleep. Venue was nice, but usually a disco. Walked around with Scott and John and found one of the few places open for lunch on Sunday. Had pizza and it was good. Pizza in the U.S. is just as good thought. Couldn't sell merch today. Something about the club wanting 33% and something about the Mob. Bootleg Deicide merch being sold outside the venue explains it all. Found a McDonalds, had a burger, anything so I don't have to eat deli meat.

Day 12 Worgl Komma
Another venue in the mountains. Its nice in Austria. It reminds me of a tourist ski spot. Walked around with the Amenta guys today, found another McD's. Good show. Guy was taping it for us and will send it when we get back home. We play early so the place wasn't packed yet, but it was still a good show. A lot of compliments about the show from different people.

Day 13 Bratislava Dubravka
Slovakia is interesting. All the buildings look the same with not much character. Hear random comments about Russia and communism today. One of the worst load-ins today. The lift was broken and our bass player got stuck in it for an hour. Had to move the equipment multiple times because of it and eventually upstairs. Ralph and Jack from Deicide made it into the city and said it was great. Sucks, I wanted to tag along. Show went well and took some pics with fans and just had a good time.

Day 14 Katowice MegaClub
The entire tour was worried Poland would be the coldest, but it ended up being pretty nice while we were there. Nice backstage area and a huge U.S. style mall close by. Had to change money into Polish since they haven't accepted the Euro yet. A real hassle, must of really sucked before the Euro over here. Good show, the Polish love their metal and Vader is from here as well as the crew.

Day 15 Warsaw Progresja
Last day of the tour. Went to eat pizza with Paul from Vader, Jarod from the Amenta and Scott. Didn't wonder around because we were so far away from the city. I really wanted to check out Warsaw too. A lot of screwing around with bands today.
During Amenta's set Glen walked on stage acting like he was talking on the phone.
During our set, as soon as we started about ten guys from the back come out and pass out Deicide shirts to the crowd. It was funny, but my pedal got unplugged and I had to scramble to plug it back in. Glen threw more fruit later.
During Devian's set about 15 of us took guitars on stage and jammed along. During Vader's set Legion taped an inverted cross on his chest and stage dived. Not many wanted to mess with Vader, too much respect. I had the idea of putting all of the trash cans in their dressingroom, but didn't want to get in trouble so I got Ralph from Deicide involved. Tour manager didn't seem pleased, but then threw trash in the room also. Then the owner of Massive Music was showing people the trash in the room too. Disaster averted.
During Samael's Throne Of The Pentagram some guys had a chair with a pentagram taped too it and brought it on stage. Again not many wanted to mess with Samael. I threw a bunch of paperballs into their dressing room while they were playing.
During Deicide's set we had to really get Glen for starting this entire thing. We threw fruit at Glen, I walked behind Jack and imitated everything he did. People told me it was spot on, I stood in front of the stage and acted like I was taking pics of Glen, he then threw fruit at me, a bunch of people threw fruit at Glen later also. When GB was away from the mic I acted like him and repeated things he said to the crowd earlier, he then made fun of me and said what I say to the crowd when we start our show, but in a high voice like I have. During Lunatic Of God's Creation Legion did the vocals. It was great. I stood by Jack during part of the song and played the guitar while he strummed the chords. Just like Racer X. For the last song, Sacrificial Suicide, GB wanted everyone on stage. There must have been about 20 of us it was great and the fands had a good time with the entire evening. Legion and I had a mic and we sang along with every word. You can find video on youtube.com

Day 16 Travel Day
We got dropped off at the airport at 4am. Our plane didn't leave til midnight. I traveled with Jack and Steve. Ralph missed his flight and had to stay an extra day. Glen left early by himself. John and Scott left early too, but couldn't get a flight from Amsterdam until the next day. The Amenta guys didn't leave until 7pm and then had a 22 hour flight back to Australia. When we got home at midnight they were just leaving. Ouch. All in all it was a great tour.
The Amenta guys were great and killed it every night. Would love to have them come to the US soon.
Order Of Ennead had a great first tour and we were very consistent
Devian was great and Swedes can drink. Legion is just a cool guy.
Vader is great live and we have much respect for them.
Samael was very professional and delivered nightly.
Deicide had a great tour also and Steve wasn't winded at all playing two sets a night.
It was a great time and we hope to hit Europe again within the next couple of months and do longer then two weeks. We are doing the U.S. with Deicide, Vital Remains, and Adrift and hope everything goes just as smooth. Thanks again Massive Music and crew. It was great.

http://www.smnnews.com/2008/11/13/order-of-ennead-cd-review/

Order of Ennead is a side project born from the ashes of Council Of The Fallen, featuring Deicide drummer Steve Asheim and guitarist Kevin Quirion, with Quirion pulling double duty as axe-slinger and lead vocalist. The self-titled debut album from the new band pushes the boundaries of extreme black/death metal, with a unique and ambitious sound that at times mirrors the members' other band, but crafts its own identify that will leave the listener floored for its whole 40-minute running length.

Order of Ennead is rooted in black metal, with Quirion's raspy vocals and bleak mood evoked from the band, even through the crisp production. Unlike most black metal vocalists, Quirion is audible and clear, allowing the listener to sink their teeth into the deep moral and philosophical lyrical content. The star of Order of Ennead, though, isn't Asheim's drumming, which is phenomenal as always. No, the highlight is the relatively-unknown 19-year-old guitarist John Li.  His lead work, in particular, is melodic, technical, and unpredictable, seemingly elevating the quality of the album on his young shoulders. If Order of Ennead is any indication of Li's immense talent, you will be hearing a lot more from him in the future.

The album goes through many twists and turns; some expected, others surprising. Whether it's the epic "As Long As I Have Myself I'm Not Alone," or the Emperor-ish "The Culling," the band goes out of their way to be as un-one-dimensional as possible. The second half of the album is where the band's willingness to experiment becomes more evident, with the beautiful instrumental "An Interlude With Reason" leading into the frenzied chaos of "A Cry To The Perilous Sun." The one-two punch of piano instrumental "Prelude To Ruin" and closer "Dismantling An Empire" is one of the best conclusions to any metal album this year, with the latter sporting a wonderful extended piano outro with a deeply morbid undertone.

Order of Ennead's first album came out of left-field, and most likely, will be largely passed over in the general metal community. Order of Ennead is the type of album you come back to five years from now and wonder "why the hell didn't this get the attention it deserved?" If Deicide was to break up tomorrow, I wouldn't even be distressed, if Order of Ennead is any indication of the direction Asheim wants to go in. Order of Ennead's diverse and thought-provoking debut deserves the attention of any open-minded death/black metal fan.

Sound: Only a few months ago the metal media was trying to paint Florida's pride and joy, Deicide, as having lost the will to go on. This provided drummer Steve Asheim with a convenient window in which to put the name of his new band out there: Order Of Ennead. They were formed from the ashes (no pun intended) of previous side-project, Council Of The Fallen, featuring Asheim on drums, Scott Patrick on bass, John Li on lead guitar and Kevin Quirion on vocals and guitar. Their sound is tight, with a slick production that emphasises the alchemic nature of the band. Despite being firmly rooted in the black metal 'feel', death metal also runs amok, perhaps unsurprisingly, through Asheim's drumming. You may be thinking 'Great, another Belphegor clone! ', but the truly appealing element in Order Of Ennead's melting pot is the lead guitar work. The guitar solos are melodic, yet retain a very metal dynamic and speed, and are performed expertly by Li. No relation, if that's what you're thinking.

Seemingly oblivious to the fact that Steve Asheim is meant to be the big name in Order Of Ennead, the guitarists really are the stars of the show, with John Li's aforementioned soloing skill and Kevin Quirion's impressive juggling between rasping vocals and rock solid tremolo rhythms taking centre stage. That is not to undermine the drumming though, as Steve Asheim's lightning fast bass and blasts return once again to give us all a mild headache. // 9

Lyrics and Singing: Order Of Ennead clearly state the efforts put into their lyrical content. The album deals with various moral, personal and philosophical issues in a surprisingly calm and effective manner. In fact, 'The Culling', which is about "distancing yourself from negativity and those that are negative", is probably the most death metal song on this CD. Not a problem, of course, but a little bizarre considering that the senile Satanism of Glen Benton is a point of comparison, despite Benton having no involvement what'soever in Order Of Ennead. Indeed, Kevin Quirion's vocal style is also far removed from that of his new Deicide bandmate; his intelligible rasping style is more 'With Strength I Burn' than 'In Hell I Burn'. He ties in neatly with Order Of Ennead's black metal foundation, without spoiling the numerous death and thrash based segments. // 8

Impression: 'Order Of Ennead' is a meticulously crafted work, with flawless structures and dynamics. From no-nonsense opener 'Seeking The Prophets' to the furious black metal and extended piano outro of 'Dismantling An Empire', it manages to both kick ass and ooze classiness simultaneously. Standout tracks include 'As If A Rose I Wither', 'Introspection And The Loss Of Denial' and the beautiful 'An Interlude With Reason'. They are confirmed to be working on their second album already, and if it's half as good as this, Order Of Ennead will quickly become a force to be reckoned with in extreme metal. // 9

About.com

http://heavymetal.about.com/od/cdreviews/fr/orderofenneadst.htm?r=94

Three fourths of Council Of The Fallen have reformed as Order Of Ennead. Vocalist Kevin Quirion, bassist Scott Patrick and drummer Steve Asheim are joined by new guitarist John Li.

Order OF Ennead's sound has a lot of similarities to Council Of The Fallen. It's black metal with death and progressive elements. Their combination of the progressive and the extreme is very effective.

The typical Order Of Ennead song will start off as traditional black metal with ominous guitars and nonstop blast beats. But just as you think it's just another typical BM band, the tempo will slow down, the vocals stop and an instrumental section will begin.

Quirion and Li's guitar work is excellent. From black metal riffs to ripping thrash solos, their playing crosses many genres, and it's all very good. Order Of Enneads vocals are black metal rasps, which are harsh yet understandable.

With half the band in Deicide and Quirion their current touring guitarist, it makes sense for Order Of Ennead to open for Deicide, which will garner them some good exposure. And even though the members of Order Of Ennead are in other bands, it's more than a side project. Order Of Ennead ia a compelling and very well done blackened death metal CD.

Rating: 4/5

http://www.metal-rules.com/review/viewreview.php?band=Order+of+Ennead&album=S%2FT


Order of Ennead takes its name from the Ennead - according to ancient lore, the 9 mythical deities said to have given birth to modern civilization.



Order of Ennead is also better known as Steve Asheim..s new band (also pounding his drums of doom in Deicide). He has teamed up with Kevin Quirion (on vocals and guitars, ex-Council Of The Fallen), Scott Patrick (on bass, Resurrection), and the 19-year-old guitar rookie John Li, who is responsible for the amazing lead work on the band..s self-titled debut album.



I have to admit that I..m honestly quite impressed by Steve..s new incarnation of evil with Order of Ennead. The band..s blend of technical death metal, black metal (it..s actually Kevin..s vocals that mainly bring in that effect for this album) - with slices of thrash even, is introduced in fine form, in which a good amount of intriguing and tastefully done melodies haven..t completely been forgotten either.



On this relatively impressive 11-song effort, Order of Ennead don..t hesitate to go to breath-taking speeds within their songs that are balanced with neck-breaking walls of heavy, target-hitting riffs, some acoustic passages, piano interludes - and beautifully crafted guitar leads that John has conjured up from somewhere for the songs. In John..s case we could even talk about some inborn guitar virtuoso as his lead work is nothing but simply amazing thoroughly. His leads are highly enjoyable to listen to; the same way like Dave Suzuki captures your ears in Vital Remains with his phenomenal lead wizardry.



Steve breathes fire and brimstone behind his drum battery like a hardened slayer of angels on the verge of Armageddon (Read: You do know what this man is capable of when playing drums - don..t you?). Kevin Quirion manages to sound like a wicked demon from Hell. In fact, there..s something in his raspy voice that reminds me of Angel Gossow..s (Arch Enemy) vocal delivery a little bit here and there, if some of you need some point of comparison. Wrapped up with the other instruments.. lethal and intense delivery, nothing can stop you from becoming familiar with this band and album, definitely worth your curiosity and interest. Order of Ennead are a new and talented force in extreme metal circles that one won't forget once familiar with them. I was darn impressed - and I bet, you..ll be too.
