New Staind Album On The Way

Staind have confirmed that their new studio album will be released later this year.

Guitarist Mike Mushok told WGRD radio station out of Michigan that the album, titled Seven, will be a return to the style of early Staind albums.

“It’s a modern sounding version of a heavy Staind record,” he said.  “It’s completely different than the last record [2008's The Illusion of Progress].  It’s more of a throwback to where we came from.  I don’t think there’s any rehashed riffs, I definitely think it’s fresh.”

Mushok also said that the album has been a difficult one to make.  “It was a tough one,” he said.  “And it wasn’t even the music or writing it, it’s just that there were a lot of things going on and it made for a long, drawn-out process, it seemed.  But I’ll tell you what – looking back, now that it’s done, I’m really, really happy with it.”
