With Every Time I Die’s sixth album currently in the mixing stages, the band has offered some insight into the upcoming effort expected out in early 2012.
“Everyone [in a band] is always saying the newest thing is their best work,” vocalist Keith Buckley told Altpress.com. “No one is going to be like, ‘You know what, to be honest, [our new stuff] sounds like shit.’ [But] this is the first record we’ve done with a new drummer [Ryan Leger]. You know, we’ve had our old drummer [Mike “Ratboy” Novak] from day one. When you make a new foundation for the band, it’s going to alter the way the things get built. It sounds like a different band; it sounds like it’s got a lot more energy to it, a lot more aggression. [Ryan’s] just a better drummer. You can tell there’s new vitality, which we haven’t had in a long time.”
