Post-album depression

Haven't posted for a couple weeks. Basically, I've been trying to get my head back together after finishing Hidden Element
.

I was shocked by the sudden depression that set in after finishing it. Not because it turned out badly. Quite the opposite. It was such a pleasure to make, that I felt bad not having any more work to do on it. It was as if my life suddenly became devoid of purpose.

I spent the last few weeks selling off some surplus guitars. One thing Hidden Element taught me is that I don't need 50 zillion different guitars to get the job done.

I'm over the blues now and firmly thinking about the future. First thing on the agenda is to complete CD cover art and have it pressed up. I haven't pressed anything since One Week In December, but this new album warrants it.

I've also got my next projects lined up, but more on that later.

About Me

Arlington, VA, United States
Hi, my name is Chris Oberst, and this blog is the nerve center for my music project, Council of One. My goal is to combine music, words and visual art into an unbearable multimedia extravaganza! This blog will focus on my own music and its creation, but I also will be discussing the music I love (and hate) and the bloodsucking industry around it.
