Five Finger Death Punch guitarist Zoltan Bathory has spoken about the material on their upcoming album And Justice For None.
The follow-up to 2015’s Got Your Six will launch on CD, deluxe CD with three bonus tracks, vinyl and deluxe gatefold vinyl on May 18.
And in a new interview with Detroit radio station WRIF, Bathory reports that it’ll contain “some massive songs that are really going to hit some chords with a lot of people.”
He says (via Blabbermouth): “We sometimes experiment, but we have a sound. It’s always about writing the song – the song is what matters the most to us.
“If you stick with your instrument and you practice all day, you’re gonna be great at it mechanically, you’re a good musician. But that’s not songwriting. Songwriting is when you can write a song that becomes the soundtrack to people’s lives.
“If you, in your career as a musician, can write one of those songs, then I think you succeeded, because that’s what matters.”
He adds: “I think this record has three or four, probably, of the biggest songs we ever wrote – and that’s what matters to us. When you’re listening to this album, there are some songs that, in my opinion, are just massive songs that are really going to hit some chords with a lot of people.”
And Justice For None is now available for pre-order, while the band will head out on tour with Breaking Benjamin across North America this summer.
