R.I.P. I. and II.
Today Transidium says good-bye to our first two songs, entitled I. and Spectral Embrace(also known as II). We have decided to part with them due to their more amateur writing and they do not fit so well with the direction Transidium is headed as of lately.
-11/7/05
We are still working on writing material for the recording. All recording equipment nescesary has been acquired and sound checks/levels have been made. The actual recordings are soon to follow after we put some finishing touches on the songs themselves and finish writing material.
We have been hard at work writing new material. We now have 2 more songs completed for a total of 5 originals. We are still gathering equipment for the demo recording. Upon completion, the demo will be available for sale through this web-site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Quick Update: New "downloads" section added. Our songs are now hosted here on Transidium.com, rather than the old audiostreet.net.
Guestbook was added for those who may not have noticed, also new pictures are regularly uploaded to the gallery. Site optimization is still under-way, as well.
Also, Transidium plans to record/release their own demo, scheduled to start some time in October. Please be patient, this will be a long and tedious job.

As you may or may not have noticed, we've had problems with our website. Our web host inserted "ads by google" all over, ruining the layout of the site.
We have decided to leave that free web-host and purchase our own. We also purchased our new domain name, Transidium.com.
With the new web-host, you should never see advertisements unless we put them there, and there should be no down times and overall faster load times of the pages.
Along with the whole server change, we have decided to revamp the website, optimizing graphics and code.
Contact section will soon include e-mail addresses for each member individually or as a whole.
Soon to come:
..Guestbook
..New Counter
..Photos hosted here on Transidium.com
..Audio hosted here on Transidium.com
In other news, we are continuing to move forward as best we can. We are still looking for honest and dedicated musicians to work with. If you play bass, guitar, or keyboard, or know anyone who does and might be interested, e-mail us.
Thanks for the continued support.

Axis of Evil.
This week's supposed upgrade on AJ's arsenal slipped away this week. On tuesday his newly ordered Axis AL-2 Longboard bass drum pedals came in... As ordered in black, they were recieved in silver. Not making a big deal of the mistake, soon was also found a factory defect. So the pedals are being shipped back for refund. Within the next month or so we will hopefully be seeing the new Axis pedals along with matching hi-hat...
This week also brings us a new Ugly Metal Face winner. Dave Poli, Congratulations! You are ugly!
We succesfully didn't practice at all this week! Don't get a job. Keep spreading the metal.
Lyrics ARE on the way.

New Years...
Wednesday, future vocalist/rhythm guitarist Kaan Akyol came up for practice. We began discussing song titles and lyrics. We also began putting down some vocal patterns.
We decided that "II"'s main verse had to be made much faster, so faster it was made. We are happy with the new tempo.
AJ has upgraded the arsenal once again adding a 18" Istanbul Mehmet Traditional China and 5 matching Pearl CH-88 boom arms. Matt feels AJ is a rich bastard, who he hates. New upgrade coming next week as well.
We have an Ugly Metal Face winner this week. Chris Lemoine has struck hard with one HELL of a photo. Check it out in the gallery section.

Quick Update
We are no longer officially hosting our music on PureVolume. Too much hardcore and emo on there, not nearly enough metal. We needed a host that has more metal listeners, so we are now on AudioStreet.net
Check it out. Also, you can click the Downloads button, as before.
Support Transidium by listening to our mp3s and putting us up on the Top Ten List!

We are currently working on a new intro for "Iceferno" which we like better than the first one.
Production is slow as Matt is currently searching for inspiration as he researches the Battle of Edington.
Scott thought he destroyed his bass amp, little did he know the GAIN knob controls a substantial amount of the sound out-put, which was turned down by the blanket Scott was wearing at the time.
Sometime soon the page will feature a "mystery link" featuring useless garbage including quotes and other things from rehearsal.
AJ decides on the "dark-cherry fade" finish for his new drum-kit 'cause he "means business".
All old news is now going to be on the "News" section of the site. Only the 2 most recent news entries will be on the "Home" page.

Matt is currently saving for his custom 7-string.
