More fun, no more Emergenza
Thanks to all you great people for the support Saturday 12th.
It was great fun to perform and we shall jump at the chance of
doing it again!
Unfortunately we did not get chosen to advance in the Emergenza game, so we're now focusing on festivals and creating new songs! Gotta start work on that second album soon!!

Bellow's hitting the national Emergenza final May 12th!
We're hoping all our friends, fans and family will attend and support us this evening! It's a big one and we're setting our goals to reach the Nordic finals - so help us make this come true!
See you all soon, very soon!
The proof is in the pudding
See y'all there!
First review of "Drowning, Not Waving"
Finally, someone's taken the time
to review our debut album - not a great review, but you can read it
here.
On the upside, I don't think many people use the page as the news are older than everything in my own refrigerator! ;-)

Bellow won the first round of the Emergenza festival
Bellow have earned their place in the semi-finals at John Dee.
The Emergenza crowd recognised talent when they saw it, and we won
the evening in style.
There will be even more style at the next gig, and we need
shitloads of people to come vote us to the finals! C'mon peeps,
this is a major chance for us, don't be too lazy to have a great
time!!!
Next gig will be April 20th!! Hope to see you all there!!!

Still going
Bit of a rocky start to the new year, but as the world keeps
putting out great music (2012 looks to be amazing in that regard),
then so should we.
New songs are finally taking shape, got two in the can and several in the grind. Just need to shape 'em into something beautiful.
Don't forget to support your favourite band - buy our CDs! You can do that here

New guitarist
Yet again we're a five-piece band. Another guitarist has been
recruited to fill in and make Bellow more complex and evolved. Tom
Fury's days as a guitar playing vocalist are over and he has now
been ordered to concentrate on vocal and stage performances!
Still no name for our new guy, he's as of now, anonymous. Anyone got a cool stagename to give him, let us know:

Stay tuned fo' mo'!!!

Bellow on the news, prime time
If you look closely you will find an old Bellow poster on the
wall in the background (made easier to spot by the help of a red
circle and arrow pointing out where)!
All in all, it's just another brick in the wall for gaining
publicity and word of mouth before album launch!!
Stay tuned peeps!
Finished recording
After listening to raw mixes we discovered certain things that needed cleaning up and we did a fine job at nipping at the corners and polishing this beast of an album that's gonna run for close to 50 minutes.
How's that for Bellow-listening pleasure?
Now we just need BIFF to finish the mastering, need to contact
Gramo & Tono for licensing and such... and then we're good to
go - press the shite and place it in the hands of you!!!
Be excited! Things are rolling again!!!
Be excited! Things are rolling again!!!
The final countdown...
Wednesday 4th of May will be the
final day we head into the studio to do the final, final bits. I
know it's been said before, but this time it's true.
Lets just hope we can finish everything else a bit faster than we've done recording :)
Again, I will leave you with the comment: stay tuned!

Closer and closer
Listening to the mix now. Not too bad at all, not too bad. So
stay tuned and stay excited, it will arrive one day peeps, one
day!
Getting close to release...
Awaiting raw mixes of all our songs for "Drowning, Not
Waving". Then we'll spend some time listening to the tracks,
figuring out if somethings missing or completely shite, and if all
15 songs actually cut it.
After this we'll green light it and send it to mastering, whilst figuring out track list and finishing the cover. From there on in, it's cut, paste and print basically!

Finishing "Drowning, Not Waving"
We're not just talking bollocks now, it's finally happening.
The first week end in March will be the final studio visit for recording. Small
bits remain, and then the last stages of mixing.
We are nearing a real product now. Music's approx 90% done, cover is taking shape. Don't be surprised if we offer our debut album on these pages in a couple of months time!

2010 recording, 2011 release...
We ain't just laying about eating
our christmas pudding. On wednesday 29th, we'll head down to the
studio to record the final bits for the album. All recording will
be done in 2010.
2011 will be mixing the tracks, getting them mastered and then
ushered to different indie labels and hopefully you'll see it in
the shops near you!!! Ah wouldn't it be nice!? Stay tuned for
release gig etc. etc. etc.
Xmas update
Sorry folks, been a while since the last update. Well, the
yuletide season has come upon us. And as with all of you, we're
busy with families and shopping and more and on and on and
on....
On the brighter side, we recently received a raw mix of Red
Light District, and it did sound superb! The album's gonna be a
killer with all your favourite hits (no, not big hits from your
childhood, but the hits we've written, stoopid). Maybe we'll post
it on our Music page, who knows what the festive season might
bring! Send a wish to Santa while you're at it.
More will happen in the new year, a big year for us in Bellow.
Debut album will finally see the light of day! Plus, make sure you
join us for some after xmas fun on the 14th at Gamla, Oslo.
Merry Christmas fans!!
Stu-stu-stu-studio time... (Nov. 18th)
It's that time again, studio time. Yes indeed, we are heading
into the recording booth for the second time this month. Gonna get
the last bass bits down, some more guitar and vocals, and perhaps
some mixing.
Unfortunately for the fans, you're gonna have to wait just a
little bit longer. There must be a final studio session in the new
year as well. Hang in there though, the wait will definitely be
worth it. There are some classics being cut and you do not wanna
miss out on a record like this.
Day 3 - Hangover Day
There had been some partying in the studio, some leaving to
Orange Goblin gig in Oslo, some dinner party and some relaxing and
thus, Saturday was the big Hangover Day!
Still we managed to record some vocal tracks. Laid down 4
tracks, completing "Fat Girl". Not a bad feat. Next time we hit the
studio (Nov. 18th) we will lay down even more vocals, more rhythm
guitar and some solos. Things are moving along, and hopefully we'll
see a brand spanking new record out in the first half of
2011.
Day 2 - StudioLine, L'oreal
Yesterday we put down quite a few drum tracks and some bass.
Things are moving along nicely, thanks for asking!
Gonne keep on rocking in the free world today and lay down some guitars and maybe even some vocals. Creativity is oozing!

Go to check out some pictures from yesterdays session on our
images page and leave some comments why don'tcha?
Today is the day (Oct. 28th)
Today we continue where we left
off the last time. It's the first day of recording again!
New album will be a blast, featuring "hits" like: High
Maintenance, Womanizer, S.T.D, Beast In Me and Show Me Your
Titties. Stay tuned for updates on recording progress and maybe
some pics and vids!
Stud-io booty
In less than a week, Bellow will
be in the studio recording songs for the forthcoming debut:
"Drowning, Not Waving". Oh what fun it will be!
Rejoice and tell your friends!
New gig added
As promised, new gigs keep being posted (and played). Bellow
is not crippled, wounded or hurt from the loss of manpower.
This beast still roars its ugly head.
They say history repeats itself
And thus it happens again, history repeats itself. We've lost
our guitarist at the brink of hitting the studio. We're not joking.
Joe King was not joking either, when he said he was leaving
Bellow.
Still, we soldier on and we're sticking to our guns and plans.
All gigs remain and the studio will be visited by the awesome
foursome that is Bellow!
New gig and studio time booked
Things are finally starting to roll. Bellow have announced a
new gig (see gigs link) and we have booked a couple of week ends in
the studio this autumn. New songs will be recorded and work will
finally start on our album, yet again.
Website Relaunch
Yes indeed, we have given www.bellow.no a facelift. This will
make it easier for us to update, thus making it a far more living
page. So keep watch and we'll try to update you on the events in
the life of Bellow.
New to the site is a comments page, we hope you'll give us
insightful feedback or suggestions to making the band better (if
that's at all possible) - we'd like to hear from you all, fans or
no fans, write those words and we'll read 'em.
Oh, and don't be afraid to share with your friends on Facebook
(use the link provided on each page).
