Despite some delays and setbacks
(such as certain songs having to be scrapped),
I'm pleased to say that I'll be ready to record 
some time in October after finally having the track
listing fully established and the singles/music videos
all ironed out. (The album now 8 songs NOT 9, now)

In other news, the 1st issue of "Wizard of Death (Comic
Mode)" is now available to read in the "Comics" section. 

 As well as the much anticipated autobiography
(Yet to be titled or released) is coming soon.

Tuesday, May 18, 2021

Yes. This is actually happening. 

Me and My roommate have been planning 
it for months now but due to certain circumstances,
the moving process has been sped up to late June.  

In other news, The live-action remake for My cover of 
Sheryl Crow's "All I Wanna Do" comes out today and also
I've finally finished My autobiography but there's 
no release date yet.  

I'm still working on the "Wizard of Death" comic but 
it's been put on hold for awhile until I'm finally moved
in to the new place.

Tuesday, March 16, 2021

Remember that one "Wizard of Death" comic 
I was working on last year? 
(that one I scrapped for the shorter version?) 

Well, I'm doing that one again because now 
I have a little more time to work on it. 
(at least up to the part where I left off). 

In other news, another music video comes out today. 

This time, it's a live-action remake of "Euphoria". 

Also on the back burner - "Classic Edition" versions 
of songs that didn't make it on last year's "Trilogy" album. 

I plan to use "vocal de-aging" to showcase what these 
albums would sound like had I released music in My 20's.

Thursday, January 14, 2020: 

The live action re edit of "Smooth 4 - Life" 
is now available. 

I'm possibly working on an autobiography 
(that branches off into alternate realities) 

And remaking more songs into the "Classic Edition" style
(and maybe doing a little "vocal de aging")
to showcase what they would sound like had
I released music in My 20's rather than My 30's.
I'm kinda hoping to do My entire discography this way. 
I call it the "Alternate Discography" project.

As for livestreams, I might be looking for a new place
to host them as I feel Twitch might not be too kind
with Their DMCA policies.

Wednesday, October 14, 2020: 

Okay so "Wizard of Death: Story Mode" is finished and available now
in the "Comics" section as well as "Sultry Queen (Full Band Edit)"
and the unofficial remakes including the 30th anniversary cover of "Enter Sandman"
might wave to wait until Their respective (and pre - planned) release dates,

I have another project in mind (involving old demo tapes)
for the future but depending on what happens after the election,
I may not be able to get to that one right away (if at all).

Tuesday, September 15, 2020: 

Okay, so I finally broke down and decided to go 2D for
"Wizard of Death: Story Mode" with Mutant Melvin being more involved.
The new single "5 Card Stud (Full Band Edit)" comes out today along with
another live-action remake of the music video (using stock footage).
I'm still doing live shows on Twitch so long as
weather (or My day job) permits.

Monday, June 15, 2020: 

"Finally…After a Year and a Half… The Ulshman… Has Come Back… to Livestreaming."
Yes - You just read that cheap impression of '90's Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson correctly. 

After December 2018's disastrous "Technological Violence: Redemption" livestream
(which was in response to another equally as bad one, mind You),
I've finally got a computer that's capable of livestreaming and not crashing.
The aptly titled "Bill Ulsh Livestream" starts TODAY between the hours of 3:00 P.M. and 7:00 P.M. 

Now, for those of You wondering "but, wait… what about 'Wizard of Death: Story Mode'?"
You needn't worry because I'm still working on that as a side project.

Also, I just got done last week with the live action remake to the music video
for My cover of Sheryl Crow's "All I Wanna Do".

Tuesday, May 12, 2020: 

I filming My parts for a Live-Action remake of "Euphoria" sometime this week.
I also have "Sultry Queen (Classic Edition)" coming this month as well as
"Rainbow in the Dark (Full Band Edit)" in tribute of the 10th anniversary of Ronnie James Dio's passing.
I'm still  working on the Mutant Melvin V extension comic "Wizard of Death: Story Mode" on the side, too.

Tuesday, April 14, 2020: 

I was gonna do a Live-Action remake of "Smooth 4-Life", until 
I found out I still had unedited footage from the original. 
So, NO FILMING NEEDED, there which makes it 
a Live-Action Re EDIT, instead. 

Also, I'm working on a "Mutant Melvin V" extension comic called 
"Wizard of Death: Story Mode" which forgoes traditional 2D 
 animation panels for C.G.I. (How many comics do that, right ?!?)

Tuesday, March 17, 2020: 

This album is now available on all platforms having just come out
on Leap Years Day (or somewhere around there).
The 2nd single  "5 Card Stud (Classic Edition)" 
also comes out today and I'm working on
the music videos for "Sultry Queen" sometime this week.
I'm also still redesigning the comics as well.

Wednesday, February 12, 2020: 

I've just wrapped up post production on this album and now, 
It's ready to go by Leap Years Day. 

I'm working on the music videos for "5 Card Stud" & "Sultry Queen", currently
and I've even re-tweaked the comics to look a little more like, well, COMICS.
Not to mention, performance videos of each song from the album (both versions)
including the 3 "guitar songs" from "The Judgment Years" as an encore. 

Looks like I've got My work cut out for Me, here.

Tuesday, January 14, 2020: 

I'm back with the mixing and mastering of this album.
And after that, I'm looking to rework the 1st single and music
video "Wizard of Death (Classic Edition)" when I eventually get around to it.

I also have a couple of other ideas for sometime after the album's release date
which I think I can do in between the other music videos that I plan to remake.

Wednesday, December 18, 2019: 

I'm halfway through the mixing and mastering of this album.
I even went back and did the "Classic Edition" as well so,
be on the lookout for a rework of the 1st single and music
video "Wizard of Death (Classic Edition)" when I eventually
get around to it. I'll be taking time off for the holidays before
getting back to the other half of this album and then working
on said single sometime before the album's release date.

Tuesday, November 12, 2019: 

I have just finished production on the "Full Band Edit" and effectively, this double concept album now
which is set for a possible Leap Year Day 2020 release. 

In other related news, the 1st single and music video 
"Wizard of Death (Classic Edition)" has just come out today.
It basically a remake of the 2013 original with some updated graphics (but nothing too amazing).
Meanwhile I'm doing reshoots for the Full Band Edit version.

Thursday, October 10, 2019: 

Due to a summer that went on way longer than it should have,
I'd taken time off and during that time, I reworked "Mutant Melvin"
a bit here and there adding new artwork and changing some
names of characters and adding a few new ones. 

I'm 3 quarters of the way done with the "Full Band Edit"
and getting ready to film the 1st set of music videos
"Wizard of Death" (both versions) soon.

Thursday, August 15, 2019: 

Now that weather conditions are kind of ideal, I can now get back to work
on this album and guess what?!? I'm already half way done.
That's right - "Trilogy (Classic Edition)" is finished as of last week and
I'm ready to move on to production for the "Full Band Edit" but before I do that,
I'm looking to film My cover video using the split screen technique. This time
it's another Metallica song - "Enter Sandman" Which I plan to get done before FBE is complete.
 

Wednesday, July 17, 2019: 

Now that I'm half way done with post-production for the "Classic Edition",
I've decided to take a little break until the summer heatwave lets up
(with an ideal hi of no more than 78 degrees) but in the meantime, I'm gonna
upload some videos. The 1st of which was uploaded today for the 10th Anniversary
of My 1st ever upload using My current recording software which was a cover of
"For Whom the Bell Tolls" which I uploaded to Myspace (and yes - I was still using Myspace back in 2009. Don't judge Me.)
I also figured before I start filming My parts for the music videos, I might as well get good at this split screen technique
by practicing on cover song first so that way, I know what the hell I'm doing when I get to any originals.
 

Tuesday, June 18, 2019: 

I'm finally done with the vocal tracks and ready to
move onto post-production for the "Classic Edition" 
(the vocal tracks, mainly) which I can then
copy over to the "Full Band Edit". 

All I have to do after that is record the Synth and Bass tracks
(Actual Guitar using an effects pedal). 

I'm  also ready to move onto the next phase of pre production
for the music video to "Wizard of Death (Full Band Edit)" 

Cant believe I'm almost done, except for filming the music videos.

Wednesday, May 15, 2019: 

I'm finally done with the instrument tracks for the "Classic Edition" and now working on the vocal tracks, 
parts of which I can then copy over to the "Full Band Edit" cutting down the workload significantly. 

I've  also just begun pre production for the music video to "Wizard of Death (Full Band Edit)"
which will be "different" from the "Classic Edition".  
In other news, the "Shows" page has now been changed to "Release Dates" to know
when a certain album, music video or anything else related is coming out.

Wednesday, April 17, 2019:

I'm over half way done with the instrument tracks for this album and also, 
I'm done with the pre production for these music video remakes I mentioned in a previous blog.
3 of which are gonna be singles for My upcoming concept album "Trilogy" using various VFX,
while the other 3 are just straight up remakes for the hell of it and also because, (as mentioned in "The Blackberry Monologues")
I've always wanted them to be live-action anyway. (stock-footage counts as "live-action", right?)

Plus, I'm back to uploading old livestreams from last year and their respective sound checks (in separate playlists) on YouTube.

Tuesday, March 12, 2019: 

I'm still uploading parts of My documentary "The Blackberry Monologues" on Vimeo due to it's weekly upload limit.
In other news I'm finally getting around to recording the concept album "Trilogy"
after finishing up pre-production for some music videos in support of said album.
Now these aren't gonna be some George Lucas "Special Edition" remix BS
(where I take the originals and add a bunch of new stuff), They're full on REMAKES of old music videos beginning with
"Wizard of Death" and then live action versions of  "5 Card Stud" through "Smooth 4-Life" (including My cover of "All I Wanna Do")

Wednesday, February 13, 2019:  

I'd just released My documentary "The Blackberry Monologues",
which is available now on YouTube as well as Vimeo.
In other news I might finally get around to recording that concept album
I've been talking about for awhile now and with it, some performance videos
in support of said album Now that I no longer stream due to
My computer not being able to handle it.
(and maybe even some remakes of old music videos)
Speaking of which, I'm seriously considering doing
a follow-up documentary about My attempts at doing so.

Tuesday, January 15, 2019: 

I plan on doing performance videos in place of that.
(Similar to when I 1st started out on YouTube)
The 3rd and final trailer for "The Blackberry Monologues" drops Today.
In other news, I've ditched the "All Synth Remix" part of The concept album
and split "The Full Band Edit" and "Classic Edition" in 2 again.
I'm currently in the process of writing bass tabs for F.B.E. at the moment.
I know this came a little late but, I had some super important IRL stuff to
deal with during My time off away from the music and switching back to
this was no easy task, either but, I'm back doing what I know.

Friday, August 10, 2018:

You might've noticed the "Shows" page 
on this site looking a little different. Well, 
There's a reason for that. IBM Cloud Video 
(formerly Ustream) has discontinued free 
accounts, so basically, if I wanted to use it 
(after August 1st, anyway), I'd have to pay. 
And that shit ain't cheap. So, as expected, 
They basically deleted My account. And 
with that, no more embedded video or chat 
like You used to see on the "Shows" page 
where You could go and watch My shows 
and chat for free if You liked. 
(Not that too many people were doing that, anyway)

This Makes My upcoming show 
"The Happening Reimagined" the 
1st to be featured on stream.me 
as well as Mixer and Twitch. 
3 sites predominately known for 
gaming, despite the latter having 
quite the abundant music community 
that seems almost lacking in the other 2.

I'm finished with the script for My documentary 
"The Blackberry Monologues" and it's currently 
in production. I've yet to begin filming, or recording 
any voice over work. As of right now, I'm only 
working on subtitles for each part that requires it. 
No release date is guaranteed yet, for all know it 
could come out summer of next year. There's also 
the matter of "The Remix Trilogy" to take into 
account, as well.

In spite of all that, I'm happy to say that today 
marks the 5th anniversary of My 1st ever 
music video "Wizard of Death". Looking back 
on it now, I realize that while "Mutant Melvin" 
says that it's a 90's fighting game, the video 
itself suggest that it might be some kind of 
robot slasher film with the only character to 
possibly give "Big Blue" a run for His money 
being Froggit during the song's climax/outro.

Thursday, March 23, 2017: 

Hey, what Up? I know it's late, but Here's what's been going on. 
You might've seen some dates on the calendar, or perhaps 
the new trailer that's been out, lately. Yes that's right. 
I've got a couple of shows coming up in April and May. 
The 1st one being an album release show. 
Yes -an ACTUAL ALBUM RELEASE SHOW (on the date of release, no less) 
Something I've always wanted to do, but could never really 
get around to doing for some reason. 
My best-of album "Bill Ulsh Yearbook" is getting released 
alongside the 1st 3 albums  (through DistroKid, hopefully) 
on April 18th, which will take place before the 1st livestream.

Also I have to give props to ysup12, 3dregenerator and the others over at 
tf3dm.com for making the 3D models You've seen in My music videos 
over the years that aren't "Wizard of Death" (which I made ENTIRELY myself) 
You guys are awesome. 
-Bill Ulsh, 2017
