“I do not know what we’re gonna do with this new album. We’re self-financing the brand new album. It has been a protracted course of; this has been occurring for years now, actually. All we have now left is 4 songs for bass. All my guitars, drums, the whole lot is all performed. Principally, yeah, there’s not a lot left. Stu‘s vocals would be the last item right here. So, yeah, 10 new songs. There could also be 12 songs, ‘trigger we have now a pair bonus songs as properly. However, yeah, the album’s nearly performed, just about.”
