Today we entered the studio once again to record our second full-length release. This will actually be a full-length version of our second EP, Will and Perception. It will be entirely re-recorded, re-mixed and re-mastered. To put it simple: re-done. It will feature 8 songs, which are all arranged to fit into the Will and Perception theme together with the 5 original songs. The progress this far is setting up the drums for recording. Updates will follow.

Pretty mild dose of updates lately around here.

However, here comes a rare chance for some good old headbanging for ppl in Stockholm or Uppsala, Canopy will play Tinnitus UF in Bålsta on the 28th of April, this saturday.

22-11-06 - Gig at Tantogården cancelled/postponed

05-11-06 - Holy update Batman!
So we've neglected the website a bit here lately. Jonatan has moved ~1000km north of Stockholm, and I moved to a new apartment not too long ago! However, none of these geografical movments impact the machine that is Canopy!

We just had a gig in Södertälje at Club Undertaker, together with Protectors and Vornth(A big fuck you to the retard in Vorth!). Live pictueres and comments will be up soon.

Today we had a fotoshoot with Peter Herneheim and we've now got some really awsome pictures. We're going to do some work on them, and then post them out for you to see!

Currently there are a few t-shirts left, in sizes M and L. If you're interested, check out the store!

We're currently working on some new material, but it's too early to disclose much about the CD. All I can say at the moment is that it's going to be huge.

As always, if you've got any questions or comments, drop by our forum!

16-08-06 - Update in Band-section
A major update on the band-section. You'll notice som info is missing, and pherhaps there is still a graphic-glitch on the main-band page, but I'll try to fix this for the next update.

There are also 2 new reviews for Serene Catharsis, found in the media-section.

10-07-06 - Site-launch
After some delays due to lack of time and technical issues (we're bloody musicians, not webdesigners) this new Canopy website has been pushed forward for a while, but as you can see it is finally available. There are still some issues around here, and we will probably be exterminating bugs for a while longer. And you'll have to excuse the empty bandpage for a while too.

In other news, we are looking into future live-possibilities in support of our new album, and we'll do all we can to play somewhere near you.

26-06-06 - New CD and releaseparty
The first edition of Serene Catharsis is available for order! We will have a bigger release in the Americas this time, but you guys over there will have to wait a short while for things to sort up.

Last but not least, don't miss our intense releaseparty / gig @ Gula Villan in Haninge this friday! Since sweden didnt make it further in the world cup, there is nothing stoping you from leaving your homes on friday for some serious headbanging!

Long time no update!
Well, it's been quite some time since we updated the webpage, mainly due to the fact that we're incredibly busy working on the new album. Status right now is that all drums, bass and rhytm guitar have been recorded! Quite a bit of the lead guitar is done and we've started working on laying the vocals. A time with Peter in deBetou has been booked for mastering. Things are flowing by quite nicely!

For those of you interested in ordering CDs, I can inform you that as of this date, there are only 2 copies of During Day One left! So please mail me before you order one!

I will try to update the webpage with some commentaries about our previous gigs and live pictures! We've all been very busy as of lately, and sadly enough the webpage has come to suffer. But fret not, we've got a lot of new stuff coming up! Roughly 5 songs have been written, and we are currently working on the lyrics. The way it looks right now, we'll be recording towards the end of 2005, aiming for a release early 2006. The next release will probably be a full length CD.

Much thanks to our friends Joel and Patricia for filming the gig at Gula Villan. The entire gig was filmed, and we're working on getting the 2.3gb file down to a more downloadable size.

EnterCanopy.com - Autumn edition
As we enter the fall, so does the look of this website! It's been a while since the last update. In addition to this new layout I have done minor updates (a little in the biography, new playlists for me and Fredrik and a couple of new links).

We have a bunch of new songs written, and will decide later which of them to record and how to deal with the recording. Some of you guys have already had a little preview at our latest gig. During this autumn we will also try to get more gigs, including gigs outside Stockholm.

It's a bit late, but we'd like to send a big "cheers!" to Amok, Subcyde and staff at Gula Villan for a cool night the thirteent of august!

01/07/05
Gig
There has been some further updates on the "band" page. And also, a new gig is at hand. We'll enter Gula Villan together with Amok and Subcyde at the 13th of August. Be sure to be there that saturday and take part in the headbanging and beerdrinking.

28/06/05
Summer report
So, what's been down lately? Peter and Erik went to relatives in Finland, Fredrik went to Hultsfred (blame NIN) Daniel went to the middle part of sweden (for a drunken weekend or something) and I stayed at home working on a new recording of a epos track by the project name of "lamp" (the song has nothing to do with Canopy though)

There has been slight updates today. We have one or two gigs in August, the one confirmed is taking place at the the cult-place "Gula Villan" in Haninge, with Schweiz-deathcrushers "Amok" and another yet to be confirmed band. It will be August 13th and there will be beer available, so join in for a heavy night.

I did a slight update on the "band" page with new pictures and new info for me and Peter, I think that the others will add new info to their profiles soon.

11/06/05
Forum is back
It happend quite a while ago, but I haven't had time to report it: The forum is back. It is exactly the same as it used to be, but with a new host. This is due to scandinavianmetal being closed for good.

You'll have to register yourself again, if you do it with your old forumnick you will get all your posts back, and if you change your name you can always ask Pat to attatch your posts again. Well, that's it. Additional updates of this page (new member-profiles etc.) are still to come.

25/05/05
Updates
It's been some not-canopy-related business goin on for a while (mainly me and Erik finsihing high-school studies) so its been a bit easy-going with rehearsals and website updates lately. Anyway, there are some updates to come - Updated member profiles as well as a bunch of new pictures.

In further news a brand new song has been pre-recorded. It (kind of accidently) ended up as a 9:15 song and it bears the working title "firmament". In it you'll have disgustingly slow parts, some grinding, a lot of grooving and both melody and disharmony, it's a cool track.

Site back - Major update
Allright, I've set up a new computer and this site will be updated regulary again, yey! Well, whats going on? A lot is going on. We've just reached the semi-finals in the Emergenza competition after a rather succesfull gig at alcazar (nalen) yesterday. The setlist consisted of three songs from the DDO demo, one cover and one song from the upcoming demo. Yea, that's right, we have an upcoming demo.

The new EP will be called "Will and Perception" and consist of five killer tunes. We will record it in February in "modern art" and "midtown" studios. More info on that one later. And don't forget the Club 666 gig in the last news-post.

29/12/04
Gig
Updates of the page have been quite few as of lately, mainly due to the fact that Jonis' computer is no more. So here comes a quick little update. Canopy will be playing at Club666 on Feb 22. We will be accompanied by two other bands, namely The Searing I and Swedish Massacre. Tickets are 50 SEK and can be bought from us. Expect a night to remember! Death attack!

Finally
I've finally sent the acutal demo for mastering now, and Peter Almgren did a great work with the layout, the package will be kickass. Click here for info on ordering a demo. The price set is 40 SEK/5€/$8 with shipping included (the cheapest we could afford, since the production price for every copy is about 25 kr).

I have already announced this on the forum, but Dan Swanö did a guest-contribution to our demo with a guitarlead and some [clean] vocals for Symbiotic. Cool guy!

01/09/04

The second chance to see canopy live is here! On the 8th of October (Friday) we'll take on the infamous "Runan" in Täby kyrkby. Demos will be available, and they won't be expensive.

Mp3s!
Three out of four songs from the upcoming During Day One EP are available for download! They are not the absolutely final versions, but not at all far from. This Mp3 pre-realease is our thank you to everyone who keeps this scene alive, and I hope at least some of you will grab the actual demo later on (they will be sold in a highquality package). Anyway, check the discography or media for some pre-realease action.

Demo recorded
Today we nailed the acoustic gutars, and erik did a couple of leads aswell, and now we can proudly anounce that the demo is recorded. I'll be finishing the mixes tommorow, and then probably send them to pregal media for mastering. I don't know about the wacken pre-realease, it feels a bit rushed at the moment, but we'll see about that.

27/07/04
Demo almost done
The vocals for the during day one demo are all done, and so are the rhythm gutiars since a while back. Some leadparts are recorded too, so it isn't much left now. The first realease will be in germany actually, so if you want to grab one of the first DDO EPs be sure to visit Wacken Open Air festival, and we'll gladly hand you one for a cool beer from the bar.

19/07/04
Update
Finally my internet connection is stable again, phew. In addition, Erik and I are back home from Arvika and ready to put some guitars on the EP. It was about two weeks since Daniel put the basstracks on tapes, so it's kind of about time (lazy homestudio behaviour). As a little bonus, watch the all silent movieclips from the recording so far, on the discography page.

04/07/04
Bass done
The bass for the During Day One demo are recorded! More info on the discography page.

I've also added Eriks info to the band page (all individual info-pages are online now) and fixed som typeos I will add a media section soon, and maybe som links. Oh, and Daniel had to create a new loggo for this webpage since the former one unfortunately turned out to use the same font as another band.

27/05/04
Updates, updates, updates
Allright, now you can find something biography-like in the "band" section plus individual info for every band member but Erik. I've also removed all broken links and replaced them with temporary templates. I also added Peters comment regarding the Nova gig.
