Staind to start work this year

Vocalist Aaron Lewis has stated in an interview with Ultimate Guitar that Staind will start work on their brand new album towards the end of 2010 setting a 2011 release date.

The new album when released next year will mark the bands seventh album and the follow up to 2008’s the Illusion of Progress.

Umm, we’re gonna start workin’ on it at the end of this year. Whatever is gonna happen here with this solo or this solo venture that I’m about to put out; I don’t know if it’s gonna be a record, I don’t know if it’s gonna be digital, I don’t know what it’s gonna be yet. But that will kind of dictate when Staind is gonna go back into the studio.
