Absolutely beautiful. So happy to hear another album is in the making - had been hoping it would be a reoccurring thing. Out of interest, what's the name/type of the guitar Rob is playing in this video? I imagine it's been explored in a video before but my memory is awful.

The Packbats

...I realize all of us were saying "make another album!" but somehow I didn't expect First of October to actually get back together to do so! May it be a fantastic session!

This makes me excited!

Christopher Buecheler

Yay! First of October returns! Assuming your engineer doesn't strangle you both when you tell him you're back to do this again.

RobScallon

hahaha yea Rob knew this time what we were up to and we were all excited to give album 2 a go since there was no surprise element too we had a full day before to set everything up, so that was a big advantage for this time

RobScallon

Has been so so cool to see all the anticipation for the new album. I love that First of October is somewhat of a real band in that way, has actual fans and makes an album a year haha I don't want to hype it up too much but I think album 2 is a huge upgrade from album 1

RobScallon

So excited to release this album! as well as I'm very excited that we've committed to First of October being a yearly thing and this is a baroque guitar, basically what a guitar was in the 1600's, we'll have a video all about it coming out later this month

Jack Muskrat

Can't wait to see the outcome for the album. Also pretty sure I saw in an Instagram story that the timer was set for 12hrs instead of the previous 10. So assuming we can possibly expect 12 tracks this time ;) The Baroque guitar looks really cool, and it (rather unsurprisingly given the period) sounds so good paired with the Theorbo. Looking forward to the vid!
