Of Mice & Men see themselves following Avenged Sevenfold into megastardom with Restoring Force.
We catch up with the Cali heavyweights for our new issue and find frontman Austin Carlile in a confident mood as he gauges where the band’s third album could take them from here.
“When you’re building a band, you have to think about two years down the road and how what you are making now will impact you later,” muses the singer. “This record is our _City Of Evil _but it’s the next one that is really going to give us the platform to get where we want.
“Avenged saw an opportunity and moved into it while making consistently great records. Look at where that took them. That’s what I see us doing.” Like we said, the man isn’t feeling shy. Read more from Austin in our new issue, out now!
