Candlebox Front-Man Kevin Martin Discusses New Project Gracious Few

It's mostly an interview about Candlebox, but there is a some TGF info.

• 10 songs done, 4 more to record
• Jerry Harrison is producing the album
• He mentions that in concert they are going to play "obscure" Candlebox and Live songs along with original TGF material. (Start your wish lists now.)
• Album to drop end of March 2010
• Dark sound" - voice like Candlebox, drums like Live, but the rest is "dark", "rock", a mashup of "Sabbath, Soundgarden, Zeppelin and Hendrix"

[SecretInsomnia]

Tnx for the info, great!

wow I didnt expect that. That's so great. Bring on Don't Wait, Saviour For A Day and Insomnia And The Hole in The Universe!

Album to drop end of March 2010

Cool to have a release date so early. At least we can start the countdown now.

"rock", a mashup of "Sabbath, Soundgarden, Zeppelin and Hendrix"

wow, they choose just 3 of my favorite artists! I really hope it will be great. And I like when it will sound dark, as long as they dont make it too dark. I prefer "SS-dark", but not "depressing-death-metal-style-dark".

Sounds really good info.



I'd like to hear:


Dam at Otter Creek
Vine Street
Graze
Ghost
Insomnia
Unsheathed
Century
A Harsher played... Mother Earth
Mashed up..Like I Do
We Walk in the Dream
Quiet River Rage
Meltdown




Most of these got very sparse play in their album tour days and after. A concert with all of those would be really cool.

Cool! I can't wait! I'm so happy they are going to play some Live songs.

I'd like to hear: She, Take My Anthem, Good Pain, Feel the Quiet River Rage, Meltdown, Century, Stage, Cheetah, Don't Wait.

I know these songs are not obscure but I think they should play Iris, Lakini's Juice and White Discussion.

Nice. Let's hear some more!

yep, I'm quite excited for this.

[LiveFan92]

So is it true that each track will be between 5 seconds and 30 seconds? 'Cause so far that, plus some photos, autographed guitars, and lots of TWITS are all we know about the band! Let's get a REAL, finished song out there, how about it?
