Det amerikanska metal bandet Five Finger Death Punch har avslöjat att de redan nu har ungefär sex låtar förberedda inför kommande album och att bandet förhoppningsvis äntrar studion i januari 2013.
Bandets gitarrist Jason Hook säger, ”The idea behind that is just to keep the creative muscle worked out. It’s just like going to the gym; if you stop for a year, you lose all your strength. It’s easy to get lazy and get sort of soft. We’re in the business of making music; touring is great, but we should always be prepared and always exercising that creative muscle — in my opinion, anyway.”
Han fortsätter, ”It’s just like anything: if you come in unprepared you get what you get, but if you do a decent amount of preparation, then at least you have options. The records are the launch pad for everything else, and I want to make the records great. If we need 10 killer songs, I’d rather have 30 songs to pick from than have eight and need two desperately at the end. I don’t want to make records in a panic.”
