Wayne recently spoke to Metal Hammer magazine about the forthcoming CD.

" 'Shadow Zone' is the next step for us," he said. "It's not like [1999's] 'Wisconsin Death Trip' or [2001's] 'Machine' — it's a new thing. When you hear it, you'll know it's STATIC-X, but we tried a lot of different things and have a whole new approach to songwriting. It's a very diverse record with some of the heaviest, moodiest stuff that we've ever done.

"I feel these new songs are the best we've ever written and it sounds great. It's the best sounding record we've done — really huge. Everyone's going to dig it. I can't see any of our fans thinking sucks. It grabs you."
