After finishing the album so many years ago I realized that I hated how it turned out. The mix was horrible, but to be fair so was all the production. Despite the horrible outcome, the act of recording the album made me better. However it did not reflect my vision. It took me several years …

See all these green boxes filled with Xs? Yea, that means the Sold Future album is 100% complete! Stages of Collapse is a full-length debut album released by Denver progressive rock band Sold Future containing 9 tracks with a total run time of 46 minutes.

Recording is Finished!
Hannah’s Holy Hamburgers! It’s finally done! All the recording is wrapped up and sent off. Took way longer than expected (or took exactly how long it needed), but it is in the hands of the mixing engineer. Actually, parts of it have been in the mixing stage for a while so there isn’t much left …
Putting the live shows on hold
Unfortunately scheduling conflicts have made it difficult to move forward towards a live gigging project at this time. I’ve decided to make this primarily a studio project for the time being. The hope to play out with the Sold Future moniker still remains, but the right line up has not materialized yet. The album is …

It’s taken a little longer than expected (doesn’t it always), however we are pleased to report that all the instrumental sections of the album are completely finished being recorded. The remaining focus for the album is now solely resting on the vocals for each track. Of course, it would be nice if we had a …
Album Rough Mixes Now Available
Really getting to the last bit before handing off the music to the mixing engineer. Just finished some “rough” mixes of each track and they are now available to listen on our music page. Obviously the final album cuts will be much better, but these will be showcased until the mixing and mastering finishes up …
Recording Home Stretch
We’re in the final stretch of recording the album with only keyboards on three songs left and all the vocals. We will start handing off tracks to be mixed and hopefully have all the vocal parts figured out before they get back to us. The guitar leads took some time to get down perfect, but …
Drums Finished on 8 of 9 Tracks
Just an end of summer update, drum tracks have wrapped up on 8 of the 9 core tracks. The only one left being the most difficult song on the album: The Leftovers. Overall progress for recording is also going very well with only two tracks left for guitar and bass, after that it’s just guitar …
