Strike Anywhere Talk New Album

Posted in Records on July 7, 2008

In a recent interview with Strike Anywhere's Thomas Barnett, it was revealed that the band would be getting together to work on their follow-up to 2006's Dead FM.  Here is what Barnett had to saw:

Since none of us live in the same cities anymore, it would be extremely economically impossible to get together and rehearse and write for too long. So I think it works. We’re going to spend some time this fall together; face to face in a basement, rehearsing, writing and making pre-production demos. That’s when you always get to kick it back to that. You can have some seed ideas for a song with some cool chord progressions and vocals and you can talk about it back and forth; but to get together and actually play it loud and fast is very important. We do that this fall.
