I started work on material for a new album before HH2 was even completed. Depending on your outlook and disposition, you might say it’s been “maturing,” or “developing.” Other equally descriptive terms might be “languishing,” “festering,” or “never gonna happen.”<\/p>\n

The truth is, we’ve been busy. Sure, day to day nonsense has a way of creeping in (and oh boy, does it), but we’ve all been legitimately busy with music stuff not specifically Mayhem – related. I tried to compile a list of all the things we’ve released individually since HH2 came out, but it’s unwieldy. I’ll hit a few high points:<\/p>\n

James has released 3 solo albums:
\nDon’t Forget<\/a>
\nCertified Organic<\/a>
\nA Monotonous Work of Mind-Numbing Repetition<\/a><\/p>\n

Grant has been a machine. I’m not going to even list all his stuff, just go look at his discography page on his website:
\nhttp:\/\/www.stemagemusic.com\/discography\/<\/a>
\nNotable works:
\nNarrowband<\/a>
\nPRIORITY ONE: The Music of TRON<\/a>
\nWhere Good Marbles Go to Die<\/a><\/p>\n

Viking Guitar Live: Legion<\/a>
\nMetroid Metal: Other Album<\/a> (Kevin and I are all up in, of course)
\nLonely Rolling Stars: Carnivortex<\/a><\/p>\n

We all did lots of work on the huge Spectrum of Mana<\/a> album and the even huger Chronicles of Time<\/a> album. We actually have two tracks credited as Yes, Mayhem on Chronicles of Time:
\nChro-NO, You Di’int<\/a> and Where the Monsters Hide<\/p>\n

We had a Yes, Mayhem track on the Super VG Christmas Party<\/a> album:
\nNorthwall (Slight Return)<\/a><\/p>\n

We also showed up on Danse Macabre 2<\/a>:
\nTroll: Cantos Profane<\/a><\/p>\n

Kevin and I have been hired gun rhythm section on a number of releases, including (but not limited to) Kevin’s first arrangement on the Sound Waves: A Tribute to Ecco the Dolphin<\/a> album:
\nSquints of Medusa<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a very incomplete list. There’s been a LOT.<\/p>\n

Of course, as always, there were a number of high profile gigs that took up our music time as well. Metroid Metal went to Mexico and played a show entirely in Spanish. Kevin has an actual recurring house band gig. Somehow, though, the stars aligned, and we’ve had an opportunity to make some progress on a new Yes, Mayhem album. It’s happening.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned… <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
