Guitarist Clint Lowery shared details about the recording process. He expressed gratitude for the team involved in bringing the album to life.
“I got so caught up at home I forgot to post my end of studio picture. Seeing the other guys finishing up their parts and going home reminded me,” Lowery said. “First off, thanks to God Almighty. My family sacrificed time away during the writing and tracking of this. My amazing bandmates gave me some of the best memories of my life. The killer production team, the complete monster squad, took things to the highest level demanding perfection or our closest effort. Four records in a row and all amazing experiences. Can’t wait to hear Elvis Baskette mix this bad boy up. So grateful. See y’all on tour very soon!”
Singer Lajon Witherspoon also confirmed the completion of his vocal contributions to the album.
“Wow, Real Time just finished my last vocal for this amazing album, Mann Bringing The Anchor,” Witherspoon said. “I don’t even have to say too much but love and thanks always amazing John Connolly. About to bring us home almost there. Can’t wait to see the fam very happy going to airport early early for real.”
The album is tentatively scheduled for release in early 2026 via Napalm Records. This announcement marks another significant milestone in Sevendust’s ongoing creative journey as the band continues to push their artistic boundaries and prepares for the next chapter of their career.
