As I Lay Dying have confirmed that they are currently mixing their new album. The effort will be the first to feature the band’s new lineup, which consists of frontman Tim Lambesis, guitarist Phil Sgrosso, drummer Nick Pierce (ex-Unearth), bassist/vocalist Ryan Neff (Miss May I), and guitarist Ken Susi (Unearth).
Lambesis told Graspop Metal Meeting the following about the record:
“We partly self-produced [it], and then we also worked with another producer. So we spent about a year working on the album by ourselves before we gave it to the producer, who’s mixing the album now.”
He also added the following about working with different musicians this time around:
“[Nick, Ryan and Ken are] new for us, but, obviously, the guys have been around playing music for 20 years themselves. We’re familiar, just having spent so much time with Unearth, and then Miss May I having a pretty similar sound.
The songwriting within As I Lay Dying has historically been mostly Phil and I. Josh [Gilbert], our previous bass player, helped. But the core of the songwriting is the same. So this additional layer that we get from these new guys is almost like breathing fresh new air… a breath of fresh air.”
