STUCK MOJO Hard At Work On New Album

September 3, 2008

Atlanta rap/metal pioneers STUCK MOJO are hard at work on the follow-up to 2006's "Southern Born Killers". According to a posting on guitarist/main composer Rich Ward's web site, Ward is on his way to the UK to do some mixing at producer Andy Sneap's (MEGADETH, MACHINE HEAD, NEVERMORE, ARCH ENEMY, EXODUS) Backstage studio. Rich will be holed up at Andy's for the next eight days, putting in some seriously long hours to get as much accomplished as possible in the relatively short timeframe. Then it's back to the U.S. to prepare for the European dates that begin at the end of the month.

As usual, there will be some surprises as far as the new songs are concerned. According to Rich, one track sounds like it would have fit quite well on 2000's "Declaration Of A Headhunter".

If you've enjoyed the various twists and turns that MOJO records have taken in the past (stylistically speaking),then you should enjoy this one. If you're waiting for them to rehash stuff they've done before, you might be somewhat disappointed.

In a recent interview with Hit Parader magazine, Ward stated about the songwriting process for the band's follow-up to "Southern Born Killers", "I just started the writing process for the new album and so far the stuff I'm coming up with is the stuff dreams are made of. You know what they say, if you don't love yourself.... I've got the next two months set aside to completely dedicate myself to this album and I've never been more excited about making the doughnuts! You know, almost all artists think that their latest album is their best, or at least they almost always state that in interviews. For most bands, it is usually NOT the case, but it ALWAYS is for us!"
