}} ''Wish Upon a Blackstar'' is the second vocal album (third overall) from American electronic rock project, Celldweller. While the album had been a work in progress since 2004, finalized songs from the album were not released until mid-2009. The full album was released on June 12, 2012.〔 Grant Mohrman, producer of the debut Celldweller album, returned to co-produce the album with Klayton. ==Production== Klayton began to work on the album in 2004,〔〔 originally slated for release in the summer of 2006, the album was delayed numerous times. In a late 2008 interview, he stated that: "I would love to just tell everyone 'The album will be done by this date,' but I've learned my lesson on that one. It's hard to predict when it will actually wrap up. I can tell you that I am thinking about alternative methods of releasing this album altogether, but I won't say anything until I'm ready to commit... that always gets me in trouble."〔 On March 9, 2009, Klayton announced that the album would be titled ''Wish Upon a Blackstar'' and he revealed the tracklisting on April 20, 2009. In contrast to the debut Celldweller album, where Klayton always tracked the vocals last,〔 ''Wish Upon a Blackstar'' was produced vice versa: "() the process for this album is totally different than any other I've done. So, that being said, I've recorded all the final vocals first. That has usually been the last step for me, but I wanted to put more of an emphasis on vocals on this album, so () Grant Mohrman and I agreed that I would cut vocals first and build everything else around them."〔 Klayton later announced that he chose to break up the album into five Chapters, instead of releasing a standard CD album after all production has wrapped: "I fully embrace the idea of releasing one song at a time. Waiting years for a full album is cool and all, but times have changed. I can wrap a track in my studio and have it blaring out of your speakers literally the next day if so desired. I had some specific reasons I was planning on releasing ''(Upon a Blackstar )'' as a full body of work, but I abandoned that a long time ago when I embraced just how much work I've created for myself with this album. I just don't totally feel right about releasing one song at a time for this album, but I have no intentions of waiting 'til I'm done with the whole thing either. So, I'm releasing the album in Chapters. () The fifth and final Chapter will be reserved for the CD, so both the artwork and the () remaining songs will be released for the first time on the physical CD". The first four Chapters were released as digital downloads only and they were available in two editions: * Standard Edition (includes the songs and a PDF booklet with lyrics, art and user submitted art) * Deluxe Edition (includes songs and their instrumental versions, PDF booklet and Beta Cessions demo clips of each song through various stages of production) Originally, there were to be 10 songs on the album, but Klayton added 7 more songs to the final CD, namely "Gift for You", "The Seven Sisters", "Memories of a Girl I Haven't Met", "It Makes No Difference Who We Are", "The Arrival" and "The Departure" (Deluxe Edition only). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wish Upon a Blackstar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
