Steve Seibold is the "main guy" of Hate Dept., a band worth listening to. Their album "Omnipresent" is one of my favorites. Follow THIS LINK to purchase it from cdnow.    After Fred Maher quit working on "Don't Be Afraid", I had to search for a new producer from scratch. A friend of mine here suggested that I speak with her friend at 21st Circuitry records, Don Blanchard. He put me in touch with Steve.    Working with Steve was the best experience I've had working on music with anyone, ever.
The room in the picture above is the luxurious $12,000-a-day recording studio in which Steve and I recorded "Don't Be Afraid", otherwise known as Steve's basement. (Note the microwave oven in the background.) . . . .    At right, we see Steve unwinding after an InSoc recording session.
