United We Stand...



Tonight was the first time since we don't know when,
where all the 4 of us in the band gathered in the
studio at the same time. Very much was talked about
and decided for the future, and now the wheels will
roll a little faster. Not only stuff about the
recording was discussed, but also the www.mobrockz.com
website, which will be overhauled, and other stuff
concerning the band, like the cover for TGE ! :)
Conny will start laying down bass this coming weekend,
Roger will have the camera rolling, and Fred will
continue with lead vocals in the coming week.
Rick will be busy pushing "Read My Hips" which will
be released on Aug 27, while Peter will engineer for
Fred when his not recording guitar fills. So far so good!
Stay tuned...

Documentary Mayhem !



No band in the world would do any good without people
who helps the band, or believe in the band.
In our case we have a few close friends that we see
as close as almost a member of the band, like family,
who are always there with good advice and kind spirit,
always there to help.
In this particular case, it's not only a close friend,
but a brother, and even a ex-member of M.O.B!
The person we are talking about is Roger Averdahl,
pictured above, the man running around the studio
tonight, while Fred was singing and recording a new
stunning version of "When Death Gives", filming and
documenting the making of this new record. And when not
filming, being a computer wizard and unvaluable help!
Here goes a big HUG, and a big THANK YOU, for being the
good friend and supporter of this band called M.O.B !

More studio work to come, stay tuned...

Back In The Saddle!

Hey there all ya groovy metalheads out there!

It´s good to see that my partners in crime are already hard at work in the studio after almost a month of enjoying a well deserved summer break. Im quite excited about goin in thursday night and try to do some wailin´, although i have a feeling that the first session most likely will result in a sore throat. That´s what you get from not singing and spending your days and evenings laying on a couch. Shame on me!

Anyway, time to whip up the pace again now. Or as CRONOS would say: HELL YEAH!

See ya! /Fred

What We Did On Our Vacation...!


Hi teens! :) We*re back ! So, You think it has been quiet
in the M.O.B world during these last few weeks?
Nothing could be more wrong!
It's been actually some interesting stuff going on!
Well, let's start with Peter. He was exhausted, after all that work
he had done up til then in the studio, so he has been busy
doing nothing, on that godforsaken island, south-east of Sweden.
He truly deserved it. Today though, he actually called in,
saying he had returned to the studio, recording and
jamming away, so The Greatest Enemy is on the prowl again!
What about Fredrik? Well, he was exhausted too.
He has just been hanging around, focusing on everyday life,
and all that stuff that goes with it. Conny, You may ask?
Well, he has been very busy. First of all, Conny has been
in charge for the upcoming cover for TGE, along with a still
unnamed hero/photographer, and he has just presented his first
take on it, to the band. The reaction was, to say the least,
positive. It will be good. You will love it.
Also, Conny has been gigging, not only once or twice,
but THREE times this summer, as a stunt-bassist in a cover-band!
People who saw these gigs says Conny did an excellent job,
and we believe them, of course!
But what about Rick? Well, he has been busy too.
He has been VERY busy, designing, arranging and constructing,
the mighty CD-release of the very first M.O.B album,
"Read My Hips"! Yes, you read it right!
The official CD-release of "Read My Hips"
will be on August 27, and the album will contain no less than
5 (FIVE) bonus tracks! Stay tuned at www.mobrockz.com
for more info about this, OK?
Until next time, relax, pop a beer, and keep in mind,
M.O.B are back in the studio, and in a record store near You
very soon, with "Read My Hips".
And later this fall, "The Greatest Enemy"......
To be continued..........

Intermission


Howdy folks! Today Peter made a quick stop at the studio to record some more harmony guitars, and we're really pleased with the results! Since last time, all of us in the band have gathered, and given our individual thoughts on everything recorded. Even though much is still to be done, we have all four agreed we have something very special brewing here. Now though, it´s time for us to take a couple of weeks off and just relax. Peter is now off to join his family at Gotland (Swedens largest island in the middle of the Baltic Sea), look at the picture enclosed. It´s a kind of magic...

But what are the others up to, You may ask,,,,?
Well, who knows,,,,, :)

M.O.B wishes you a great summer vacation!!!!

See ya soon!!

/Peter, Conny, Fredrik and Rick

Diary of Madmen


I hereby, proudly announce that I´ve now completed recording rhythmguitars (for the 4th time around:-/) on all songs.

Next up on the agenda is that we´ll sit down and listen to the songs individually and then gather to discuss guitarsounds, vocal-arrangements, to find out if we´re happy with the results, as they are, or if we want to re-do anything.

Stay tuned folks and remember.. Be safe out there..

/Peter
