Faith No More to record first new album in 17 years

[Amakir]

[QUOTE]Faith No More is currently recording their first full-length album since 1997's Album Of The Year.

A limited-edition (5000 copies) seven-inch single of the song "Motherfucker" will precede the April 2015 release, available via Record Store Day's "Black Friday" event (November 28). The single will be released digitally on December 9.

Asked what the new material sounds like, Gould told RollingStone.com: "What I can say is that I think through our experience as musicians over the years, I think what we're doing reflects where we've gone since we made our last record as Faith No More. I think this kicks things up a notch. And I think there's parts that are very powerful and there's parts that have a lot of 'space.'

"Everything we do, with our chemistry, the way we play; it's always going to sound like us. It's just what we do, that makes us feel good. Hopefully it doesn't sound like a bunch of 50-year-old men... which we are! [Laughs]"

He added: "There's going to be a lot of space and scope — big, big sound-stage space — but I also think there's gonna be a lot of those things that we already have. All I can say is what we're doing just feels right."[/QUOTE]

Dunno how many people here care about Faith No More but they are one of my personal favourite bands. Angel Dust is one of the greatest albums ever recorded and while I doubt this will be even half as good as Angel Dust I'm still pretty excited.

For those of you who are curious here is a crappy live recording of Motherfucker.

Great news. Hoping they'll tour Europe when they've finished their US tour.

So pumped. They'll be in Australia soon for soundwave, but unfortunately I won't be seeing them (As they're the only band on the lineup I'm into...)

Hoping for some side shows!

This is awesome, been a fan of Faith No More since around 2001 and got to see them in 2009 when they got back together. Looking forward to the new album!
