the other new songs will be posted early next week....so stay tuned. here are our thoughts on these new songs:
State of Flux
(CHRIS) The last of a large group of songs written in winter 2010/2011. I wanted to develop this out to sound upbeat and jumpy. The song caught fire once I came up with the accompanying guitar part you hear in the right speaker. I'm always trying to find some element that takes ordinary chords or music to a level worth working on. Once the guitars where in place I felt it was time to send over to Matt. His initial feedback was positive & away he went. He took lead guitar duties on the song and continues to write these stand out leads in a lot of our songs. I think the bass line was something he really liked.
(MATT) This song was a lot of fun to work on. It had a great groove right from the beginning & I was really excited to try something new vocally. Chris said that it's our "poppiest" song yet, and he may be right. The bass line is one of my favorites that he's come up with thus far & it really pushes the tempo of the song. The solo was tricky & it took me a long time to nail down the take that you hear!
Hold Me Down
(CHRIS) Matt had a very cool slide riff going (there's a video of it on our Facebook page). I had an old drum track that I thought might fit the song. Matt had to re-arrange some things, but sent back this monster sounding song. He had some struggles finding a fitting bass sound if I recall. I also think he had told me that he'd ended up pissing off the neighbors whilst recording the vocals for this one. Good stuff!!
(MATT) The working title for this song was "Blues Slide Stomperooni." Yup. Silly name, fun song. For some reason, I've been keeping on of my acoustics tuned to Open D for a long time. One day, I picked it up & grabbed the slide. Within 24 hours, the core of the song was done. I had an absolute blast recording all of my parts on this song. The bass was challenging, but once I stepped away for a bit it fell into place. Chris' lead lines throughout the song are simply awesome. These 2 songs are so different....they sound like an entirely different band, in my opinion.
So there you have it! New stuff is in the works as I type this. Looking forward to spending some time in the studio this afternoon! Stay tuned for the other two new songs (Hard To Swallow & Once More) early next week!
Really nice guys! I have really liked all your tunes so far but these sound a little different, I loved it! Especially State of Flux, definately my fav so far. So when is the next album coming out??? Keep me in loop! Thanks so much for sharing all you music with us, it's great!

Thanks you guys!! This collection of tunes are diverse as always. Talked with Matt for about an hour today & we both think SOF & HMD will end up on LP#3.
Life Can Go, our second LP is done. Artwork still in development but will have news to share soon. About to take a much deserved 2 week vacation, so I'd expect more news in May. Thanks for the kind words guys! We love sharing this with you all : )
Chris
chris & his wife are enjoying a much deserved vacation....and we're jealous! anyway, we'll still have a lot going on while he's gone. there are 2 new songs (Hold Me Down/State Of Flux) at the top of our reverb page right now and i'll be posting 2 more new songs (Hard To Swallow/Once More) later on this week. after that, look for some previously unreleased demos to surface. like Chris said, Life Can Go is coming....and it's out hope to start the pre-order in the next 1-2 months.
now for some exciting news......
in the meantime, we are going to be offering a digital-only EP through iTunes, Amazon & other digital retailers. we haven't finalized all of the details yet, but i can tell you that it will consist of 5-6 songs. 3-4 of them will be bsides from our Life Can Go sessions and the remaining songs will be newly recorded alternate takes of 2 songs that have already appeared on our albums. i mean alternate in every sense of the word....they have been rearranged, re-recorded & re-developed. we're really excited to share them with everyone.

Very Exciting!!!! Still the only CD in my car that does not get rotated
Matt here. Chris & I are really excited to post two more new songs called Once More & Hard To Swallow. You can listen to them on our reverb page here: www.reverbnation.com/presentlyfalling.
thanks for your support!
Matt
-ONCE MORE-
(Chris) This song dropped out of the sky one night during the work week. I rarely work on music during the week because of work, but there was something different about this one. I think all the parts were finished in a day? A lot of excitement around how quickly it all came together. Talk of completing each others musical thoughts quicker and quicker the longer we write together. Matt plays everything on here, except the drums. Pretty amazing melody and guitar work.
(Matt) Chris is right.....this one came together very quickly. I had been playing a lot in Open D tuning, and this song is a direct result of that. When I'd finished my parts, Chris said that he was going to add drums only. I was a little surprised by this, but he told me to trust my instincts & that all of the parts were solid enough to make the final recording.
-HARD TO SWALLOW-
(Chris) This one quickly followed "Once More" in the same week. I love the guitar intro on this one. Like a bulk of our songs, this one has the "building steam" formula on it. It has a great apex towards the end where all the elements are at once. Matt was worried that all his vocal tracks would make the song too trippy. I think they're awesome and more experimental than what we have done.
(Matt) To be honest, I have no idea how this song came about. I had a basic chord progression...next thing I knew I was adding some leads...then came the vocals. The vocal layering was an experiment at first...somehow, they stuck around! My favorite part of this song is the bridge where Chris just launches into one of my favorite solos that he's ever done. His drumming is also amazing on this tune. Like the two that we posted last week, there's a very good chance that this song will end up on LP #3.
*just an FYI---reverb is acting up today, so i can't move these new songs to the top of our playlist. click the tab that says "see all 82 songs" & scroll to the bottom. i'll try to fix this asap. thanks!*
OH shit! How did I miss these???? Sorry guys. Will have a big listen to these this arvo and give you fellas some feedback!

Just finished listening to them both then! I thought I wouldn't have time but little is still sleeping. Really nice, I like that middle bit in Once More (sorry not good with music lingo) think they call it a bridge??? Anyway, I really liked that but Hard to Swallow was my fav out of the 2, wasn't hard to swallow at all! Thanks so much again for sharing this with us, very cool!
