It looks like Halestorm are already thinking about their next album. During a recent interview with May The Rock Be With You, frontwoman Lzzy Hale revealed that the band are hoping to have “a new record — kind of — set and figured out” by the end of 2023. Guitarist Joe Hottinger also chimed in saying “maybe [it’ll even be] done.”

Hottinger said the following:

“[‘Back From The Dead’] hasn’t even been out a year… We’re leaving in a few days to head Down Under [for an Australian tour], and we’re just churning right now with new ideas and thoughts and pictures of the next record. I’m excited to get some writing going. Get through this run and start hustling down here [in the studio].”

Hale continued:

“Joe and I were hanging out last night, and it was just, like, all these new ideas and new titles and new riffs and stuff. And we got really excited about it. Like, ‘Is it happening? Is the feeling happening again?'”

Hottinger added:

“That last record just kind of drained us. We were so happy to get out on the road and not think about that sort of thing and think about rock shows and touring and traveling and having fun and seeing places and seeing all our old friends. So we’ve been doing that for over a year now. So it’s, like, ‘All right.’ The old gears are turning new again.”
