Chatting with radio station WRIF, the guitarist defined that he is “simply alongside for the journey” however defined how he thought they may do it (transcribed by Blabbermouth):
” what? I am undecided. I feel we’re gonna simply drop songs. That is what I have been doing personally [in my solo career] for a very long time. After which what I do is I will simply drop new songs, drop new songs, after which I will take all these songs and put ’em in a document and promote ’em at my exhibits or no matter, the total document. However I personally actually like doing it this fashion.
“If you drop these songs individually, it is like each track’s a single, and it is actually cool. And I feel, like, simply think about if Van Halen did that. You’ll by no means learn about ‘Take Your Whiskey Residence’ or any of those deep cuts. You are, like, ‘Oh, wow.’ Like ‘D.O.A.’ or one thing. What if these have been all singles? ‘Trigger in my eyes, all these songs are singles. I like these possibly greater than ‘Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love’ or one thing like that. I feel these deep cuts are simply pretty much as good because the singles they put out. And these bands labored so onerous on these songs. And these days you simply hearken to the singles and issues like that. So, I like doing it that means. So I do not know. I do not know what they’re gonna do. I am simply alongside for the journey.”
Given how a lot music he is launched and what number of artists he is toured with, John 5 definitely has an knowledgeable perspective on releasing music. Mötley Crüe have loads of hits, so they don’t seem to be in want of extra music to play reside, both.
