Mikey Doling On New Snot Album: “I’d Like To Get It Out Definitely Next Year”

During a recent appearance on The Vulgar Display Of Podcast, Snot guitarist Mikey Doling offered an update on the band’s new album. He says he would “like to get it out definitely next year.”

Doling said the following:

“First I gotta say, filling [late SNOT singer] Lynn Strait’s shoes is not fucking easy, man. And we cycled through a few people to try to get the right guy, and we finally fucking found [Andy Knapp]. Andy is… He’s just got the vibe, the energy. He’s even from where SNOT’s from, up there in Ventura, Santa Barbara area. And the fit is perfect, and also the dude is so fucking talented, man. He just gets it. So we went into the studio with Chris Collier. Chris Collier produced a couple of KORN records and PRONG and a lot of records I like. And working with Chris is just — he just totally gets it, too.

We started working with [Chris] — God, it’s been about eight months, I think we started, just started chipping away at new songs. And we are now eight songs into the record, man, and it’s fucking amazing. We’re stoked. It’s punk rock. It’s got that funk element to it. We kept it real. It’s got that taste of metal in there. And we kept all that loungey stuff we did on [the debut SNOT album, 1997’s] ‘Get Some’; we’re putting that in there as well. So what we did was we tried to stay in our lane as SNOT, and I think we accomplished it. And so I can’t wait to put this record out for everybody to hear it, ’cause it’s on fucking point. We’re very excited to release this thing.”

He also added the following about release plans:

“We’re starting to think about it. I’d like to get it out definitely next year, in the spring or something, ’cause I’d like to have something to tour on for the summer festivals and all that, a new album. I’m hoping to get a new single, or our first single, out before the end of the year, with a video and all that, and maybe drop another one and then just drop the record. But it’s definitely coming. We are on it. I mean, we mean business with this album.”
