Five Finger Death Punch is working on a new record, and apparently, they have to release a new record every two years.
The band’s guitarist Zoltan Bathory sat down with Graspop Metal Meeting for a new interview. He was asked about the possibility of a new album. The rocker admitted that an album is in the works:
“We are working. So there’s definitely a new record coming, hopefully next year. We’ll see when, but we’ve been working on some stuff. There’s always things in the vault — we’re always doing something. And when it’s not time yet, then we just put it in the vault.”
He also explained why the band has to release a new record every two years:
“I do believe that we have to record an album every two years, maybe three at the most. Because we are in a fast lane. Every band is in a fast lane. Time changes, [and it’s] very different for us. And so I feel like every two years is about the time when we are kind of different people. A lot happens to a band in two years. And so every record is a snapshot. And I feel like you have to — if you wanna follow a band, it’s like it’s about the right time. Every two, three years, you put out a record and people can follow where you are. If it’s a longer period, I’m not sure that they can, because in three, four, five years, a lot changes.”
Details Of The New Single
There are no details about the album except for Bathory’s recent comments yet, but the band released a single in March this year.
Five Finger Death Punch released an expanded digital version of their 2022 album ‘AfterLife’ in April. To celebrate it, they shared a new music video for the bonus track ‘This Is the Way,’ featuring the late rap legend DMX.
‘This Is the Way’ is one of four extra songs on the ‘AfterLife’ reissue and is the only one featuring DMX.
We might hear more about the upcoming record in the following days.
