FLOTSAM AND JETSAM's latest album, "The End Of Chaos", was released in January 2019 via AFM Records.

Last spring, singer Eric "A.K." Knutson told The Metal Voice that FLOTSAM AND JETSAM was already working on material for the follow-up to "The End Of Chaos".

Asked about a possible musical direction for the next FLOTSAM AND JETSAM disc, Gilbert said: "'The End Of Chaos' kind of bled over into the power metal thing. I don't know how we did that, being a speed metal band [or] a thrash band, classified as that. But where we're going now, I think it's gonna get much heavier, actually. I don't know how that's gonna happen, but the new stuff that Steve [Conley, guitar] and I are writing, and what [Eric is] putting on it, it's gonna be fucking heavy as shit."
