Damiera are slef-producing their new album, Quiet Mouth, Loud Hands, that is set for release this summer. You can read more about it below.

For the last four months, Damiera have been locked in their rehearsal space in Niagara Falls, NY writing and recording Quiet Mouth, Loud Hands, the follow-up to their 2007 debut, M(US)IC.

Interestingly enough, Damiera’s new bassist, Jayson DeZuzio is a seasoned producer who manned the boards for Coheed & Cambria’s The Second Stage Turbine Blade, early My Chemical Romance recordings, and Damiera’s debut release, M(US)IC, before he permanently joined the band in June of 2007.

“Jayson and I spent the first month making and trashing ideas” says Raymond. “Rehearsal as a group brought about eight songs to completion during the month of December.”

But creating the album hasn’t been without it’s share of problems.

“We lost about three weeks when the roof leaked on our console and it had to be sent out for repair,” reveals Raymond.

Damiera’s recording process is being documented on their new official website. The site launched last week with a complete 36-photo set from friend and photographer Robert J. Whitney.

“It’s a day and night process,” says Raymond, “sleep when you need to.”
