Recording
In June 2002 The Awakening recorded its most aggressive album, Roadside Heretics. Regarding Roadside Heretics, HM Magazine wrote that "Ashton Nyte has a great understanding of the gothic aesthetic. Besides modern day mainstream breakthroughs like Trent Reznor and Marilyn Manson, The Awakening would surely make David Bowie, Peter Murphy, and Lou Reed proud... he can still make us squirm with a sensuous love song like "Cover." Brilliant."
Additional reviews drew attention to the "quieter pieces" of the album such as songs like "My World" as they showcase the strengths of Ashton Nyte in "both vocals and composition."

Famous quotes containing the word recording:
“I didn’t have to think up so much as a comma or a semicolon; it was all given, straight from the celestial recording room. Weary, I would beg for a break, an intermission, time enough, let’s say, to go to the toilet or take a breath of fresh air on the balcony. Nothing doing!”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“He shall not die, by G—, cried my uncle Toby.
MThe ACCUSING SPIRIT which flew up to heaven’s chancery with the oath, blush’d as he gave it in;—and the RECORDING ANGEL as he wrote it down, dropp’d a tear upon the word, and blotted it out for ever.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“Write while the heat is in you.... The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which has cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
