A message from Jyri

As master Rockwell Powers mentioned in his blog-ism, "New Members/Good Luck to Jyri and Evan", I have indeed left the States to ca$h in on my studies and am, of course, pursuing my ever-present, never faltering musical interests. When RP said that it seems that I always have a new project, he isn't kidding - my mind tends to wander a lot when I'm inspired, and there are, indeed, a great bevy of musical ventures I aim to partake in, when the time comes, of course. Right now I am focusing on two, namely: New Origin (alternative rock/industrial/progressive - not really Metal, RP - *smiley*) and Right Of The Master (progressive jazzy black/death/doom metal). I am more focused at the moment on the former, but will gradually gather the pieces together with the metal band (RotM) as well and actually record something.

So... New Origin...

n.O, to continue cryptically abbreviating everything imaginable, is a band I was in before leaving for the US. In the summer of '07, we began work on our first EP, for which the final guitars were recorded mere days before I was booked to fly out of Finland. Short story... even shorter: the EP is finished after meticulous recording and mixing and organizing busy schedules and bassists living abroad. The entirety is up for free download in the appropriately titled music section on our website (http://www.neworiginband.com), along with a promo single track "Liquid Courage". Check it out(!) and add us on MySpace or Facebook, or both.

We're currently in the process of writing new material, finding a bassist, booking shows, and sealing that coveted record deal.

I suppose that's enough marketing for now.

I wish the best of luck to the new incarnation of 10&C, which appears to be a splendid one; Kenny is a beast on the gitbox and Jon is a creative bastard. I rabidly look forward to whatever they put out. It even strikes me with an inkling of jealousy that I am not able to be a part of this incarnation, but, life tends to move people around to strange places and in even stranger ways. I'm fortunate and proud to have been a part in creating the 10&C machine, and hope that the concept lives on and grows. Speaking of which I have another side project in mind. It's...---

With utmost regard and greetings of rocking onward,
Jyri
