BIOHAZARD Has Finished Writing '80 Percent Of Music' For Next Album
August 17, 2010BIOHAZARD has finished writing 80 percent of the music and about 40 percent of the lyrics for the band's next album, according to a brand new interview bassist/vocalist Evan Seinfeld gave to Chris Harris of Gun Shy Assassin. The follow-up to 2005's "Means To An End" will be produced by Toby Wright, who has previously worked with KORN, SLAYER, MÖTLEY CRÜE, KISS, FEAR FACTORY, IN FLAMES, STONE SOUR and OZZY OSBOURNE, among others. Seinfeld describes the new material as "big, nasty, metal and hardcore" with "melody and hooks, which we've never had before," and promises that the new stuff is heavy, with "moments that feel like 'Urban Discipline' [1991] or 'State of the World Address' [1994]." He says it's "pissed off and thrashy and there are a lot of those intense old-school moments."
In other news, Seinfeld has finished recording the debut album from his long-in-the-works side-project THE SPYDERZ, which also features John Monte, formerly of MINISTRY and M.O.D.
"This is something I have always wanted to do, and it's taken time for me to let it organically develop," Seinfeld tells Gun Shy Assassin.
"I don't know if it sounds like any of these things but the intentions of it come from THE ROLLING STONES and THE WHO, SOCIAL DISTORTION, LYNYRD SKYNYRD. Some people have said it sounds like THE CULT and old GUNS N' ROSES. It has some acoustic ballads.
"Very few people — maybe nobody — will hear it and think, 'That's the guy from BIOHAZARD.'
"You know, even people I am friends with, they play in a band and then they go start another band and it sounds like the first band. Jamey Jasta has five bands that sound like HATEBREED.
"I love Jamey, I love his energy, and I love what he does, but anything I could do in BIOHAZARD, I would do in BIOHAZARD."
