SIXX: A.M.: New Video To Be Directed By PAUL R. BROWN

April 19, 2010

Paul R. Brown, who has previously worked with SLIPKNOT, MÖTLEY CRÜE, KORN, GODSMACK and AVENGED SEVENFOLD, is writing the video treatment for the first single from the upcoming sophomore album from SIXX: A.M., the band featuring MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx alongside James Michael and D.J. Ashba (GUNS N' ROSES).

In a recent interview with Billboard, Sixx stated about the next SIXX: A.M. CD, "We've got a lot of songs, and we're in the final home stretch of buttoning all those songs up. It's definitely going to be this year — or in a perfect world, it will be this year. I don't want to jinx it."

The new album will be another concept piece, but Sixx would reveal the storyline yet. "As a lyricist, I'm really trying to raise my level of quality," Sixx said. "Being able to say something lyrically, to say something that will do more than just be words, is really hard. It's easy to do when you're writing a chapter of a book or writing poetry, but it's really hard to do when you're confined to a melody line."

Considering the fact that SIXX: A.M.'s debut, "The Heroin Diaries", has shifted more than 300,000 copies in the U.S. to date, there is quite a bit of pressure on SIXX: A.M. to deliver a worthy follow-up effort, but Sixx told Billboard.com he is doing his best to put it aside.

"There are expectations, but you have to ignore them," he said. "SIXX: A.M. is a passion project. I think when you do things like that and put your heart into them and do your best and don't necessarily put them on a marketing grid, that's when things turn out the best."
