FAITH NO MORE RECORDING NEW ALBUM, LIMITED EDITION 7″ SINGLE DUE OUT NOVEMBER 28

Faith No More band

In the wake of the announcement that they would be headlining Soundwave Festival 2015, Faith No More have confirmed that they are working on a brand new studio album. The disc is due out in 2015 and will be the band’s first studio effort in 18 years. A limited edition 7″ vinyl single “Motherfucker” will be released on Record Store Day’s “Black Friday” event on November 28. Only 5,000 copies will be released, but the single will be released digitally on December 9. The band is working on the new material in Oakland, CA with bassist Bill Gould producing the project. Gould recently spoke with our friends at Rolling Stone. “We’ve always shared a chemistry between ourselves that’s unique to this band, but these past few years of touring together have made us aware that we not only play better as a unit, but we like the new stuff we’re coming up with,” Gould said. “So we’ve decided: we’re going to get busy in 2015…make an album we’re proud of, kick things up a notch, get out there and perform it and maybe even dedicate a little more focus to our fans in the States this time.”

The new album will be the very long-awaited follow-up to 1997’s Album of The Year which hit #40 on the Billboard Top 200. The band scored their biggest successes with 1989’s The Real Thing and 1992’s Angel Dust. Throughout their career, the band has sold over 10 million albums worldwide. They’ve been nominated for three Grammy Awards and five MTV Video Music Awards, winning in 1991 for Best Visual Effects in a Video for “Falling To Pieces”. – by Matt Bishop (Top Photo Courtesy of Margaret Banda)
