Linkin Park front man Chester Bennington told Rolling Stone in a recent interview that his new band Dead By Sunrise are in the studio working on material for their debut album. He described the project, which features members of Julien-K, as more of a melodic rock band than the hip-hop influenced Linkin Park.
“I wouldn’t call it a side project,” Bennington told Rolling Stone. “We’re a full, ready-to-go band and so this is something we take very seriously.” “We’re not planning on releasing a record this year. We don’t know when it’s going to come out.
Slipknot front man Corey Taylor told Billboard in a recent interview that the band’s new album will include more melodic vocals than before.
“It has so much power in it and yet there are so many great spots for melody,” Taylor explained. “I got to the point where I was tired of pretending that I couldn’t sing every time I made a Slipknot album, so this time I’m going all out.”
Taylor also stated that the band will appear in “evolved‘ new masks and outfits which will be “very dark” to fit the image of the new album. PERSONALLY I CANNOT FU*KING WAIT FOR THIS TO HIT STORES!!!
