Motley Crue singer Vince Neil says the band is planning to record some new music, but fans should not expect an album of material.
“No, no new album,” Neil tells Music News Nashville. “What I’m hearing is that maybe two or three or four more songs might come out to go with that song we released this year (“Sex”), but it will be something like an EP, not an album. Our schedule seems to have a lot of touring. If something did come out in the form of an EP, it would probably be in the beginning of 2014."
Vince was asked how the Crue write their songs.
"It starts out with a guitar riff, and then we put it together with the other instruments and put a melody to it,” he explains. “After the melody and song structure are finished, we edit different parts in and out, and eventually, it all combines to become a song."
The singer says that songwriting is not as difficult as some might think.
"There aren’t really any hard songs to write,” says Vince. “It’s usually pretty easy, if it gets hard, it gets shuffled away and something else comes up, or it becomes something you can go back to it and use other parts with it to make it work better. Most of the hit songs have been easy to write, though!"
Motley Crue will open an Australian tour for KISS, with shows starting February 28 in Perth; the classic rockers will be joined by Thin Lizzy for the trek.
