[@TheSpineSplitter1990]

Sick! Will there be any videos of the man himself Erik Lindmark?

[@TheSpineSplitter1990]

Also, Your guitar work on Portals to Canaan was sick.

[@JuanPablo-pr1eu]

fantastic!!!

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

Thank you!

[@TheTwoThumbs]

You dudes really set the bar at a whole new level. The production is so clean it almost makes me want to sell all my gear and become a businessman. But then I listen to Portals and all is well in hell again.

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

Thanks!!

[@Diwger]

Hi, Craig! I'm a beginner guitar player, and need some help about playing death metal. Can you make some tutorial/tips how you use guitar scales for composing riffs and solos or how it use correctly in general? It would be very helpful. Really inspired by your music, thanks for a great stuff!

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

+Diwger That would be cool to do! I also give lessons if you're ever interested. Thank you for the kind words Diwger!

[@jordanowens6253]

Destroying The Devoid Erik is only doing vox this record?? 😒

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

+Jordan Owens Erik wrote on this record as well as he's doing all the vocals. He will address this in a future video.

[@SpiritualOnslaught]

I'm thinking this has something to do with the tendonitus

[@nr655321]

I was very impressed with the last record. I am really curious to hear the new one!

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

+Ma/ Prz/ Thanks! This new one is going to be portals to Canaan on another level.

Very looking forward to the new DEEDS OF FLESH

I imagine with Erik Passing this album will never see the light of day. I hope not but I'd understand. RIP

Any chances on a release of new deeds’ stuff after Erik’s passing? Tragic loss to death metal community.

Thanks dude!

[@malignanz]

Yo Craig! How's it going with the new material? Are you guys still working on it? The release was scheduled for 2018 and I really miss you guys! I understand the tragedy with Erik but I still wonder why it has become so quiet around the band :(

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

Hey Kim! The music is done, but we’re in the process of finishing the vocal part of the album. There will be more news in the later part of the year.

[@malignanz]

just awesome, as usual!!! can you tell me what software you are using for your video intro graphics....they are just great

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

+691High I normally use Final Cut Pro X. But my drummer Darren Cesca made these intros.

We’re in the process of finishing it. More news next year.

Hi Craig!! When will you release the new album!?!?!

[@SagaBKSFolkearth]

So sad that Erick left us.. Any chance that the new record you were working on will still be released ?

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

Yes it’s very sad and way too soon. There’s no official plans yet, but we will announce it sometime in the future.

[@heyimgoingtoplaysomegames]

@@DestroyingTheDevoid Thanks, Craig. At the very least I hope we can hear the last bit of music Erik was able to contribute to. Side note. I got to meet you years ago when you were playing with Arkaik. You're an amazing guitarist, and a stand up guy. Incredibly sad to see things go this way for Deeds, but I sincerely hope you guys keep going and carry on the legacy that Erik started. \m/

[@jeffreylieberman1668]

Come on Craig, it's been 3 years now, we need a newer update. 😁

Our singer passed away and we’ve been trying to pickup the rest of the record. We’re working on it though.

What's the theory of his guitar playing? Is there a way he plays so it sounds like really good?

[@plagueson2426]

What's the tuning? Btw I love the new album

A standard on 7 strings. Thanks!

Will you ever offer up those GTpro tabs for anyone looking to purchase? I'd kill to get some official Deeds tabs. Thanks for the video, man

@@DestroyingTheDevoid God damn that is good news. Made my day.

[@gustanoid]

Hey Craig! What is your string action to play technical stuff like that?

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

It is pretty slow, but nothing crazy. It’s all about finding what’s comfortable for you.

[@gustanoid]

@@DestroyingTheDevoid I get string buzz when I lower it to comfortable level :D

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

Maybe you need to mess with your string gauge too. It’s a balancing act. So maybe get thinner strings so there’s less tension and easier to play or vice versa.

[@jordanowens3748]

Is Erik on this album??

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

Yes he will be!

[@ICEESAreFuckinGood]

Interesting ideas. More alien semi melodic riffs without losing any of the brutality.

[@SpiritualOnslaught]

When are you guys aiming to release the album? 2017? or later?

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

+Spiritual Onslaught hopefully this year. But there's no set date yet.

[@barad-dur9236]

so does erik just compose the music now? since his hands arent capable of playing the riffs over and over? or do you write the guitars and he only produces and does vox and arranges your parts?

[@DestroyingTheDevoid]

+Barad-dûr we both write. This album is the most I've written on a Deeds of Flesh record.
