Godsmack drummer Shannon Larkin has confirmed that the band is working on material for the follow-up to 2018's When Legends Rise album.
In a video message shared via the Twitter account of SiriusXM, Larkin said, “We're spending our time right now trying to write some new music for y'all, because we can't tour right now. So we hope that everybody's staying safe during this pandemic. All of our tours and shows are canceled for the time being. But this is gonna get better.”
Singer Sully Erna told us a while back that Godsmack stays on top by evolving musically: “We have to grow and we have to expand and we have to try new things, you know. I mean, you can't find the magic unless you experiment and explore new ideas. But there are some people that are just like, you know, in that thing where they want us to sound like the Awake record every single record, and I just can't do it.”
Godsmack landed three Number One singles from When Legends Rise on the charts. The title track, “Under Your Scars” and “Bulletproof” all topped the rock radio chart, while “Bulletproof” was also the most-played song at rock radio in 2018.
