Coming back to metal after the last album felt like a fresh start, and we had a lot of fun writing and recording the new songs. The songs are much faster and have a more speedy feel to them that everyone can and will want to sing along to. I can't wait to take this album on tour with us and see how the crowds react to our return." This is the album that fans have been waiting for, according to himself.
