Bill Gould speaks about new Faith No More album
Bill Gould has spoken extensively to Rolling Stone about the new Faith No More album which will be released in April 2015:
When asked how the new record sounds he said:
“I mean… [Laughs.] What I can say is that I think through our experience as musicians over the years, I think what we’re doing reflects where we’ve gone since we made our last record as Faith No More. I think this kicks things up a notch. And I think there’s parts that are very powerful and there’s parts that have a lot of “space.” Everything we do, with our chemistry, the way we play; it’s always going to sound like us. It’s just what we do, that makes us feel good. Hopefully it doesn’t sound like a bunch of 50-year-old men… which we are! ”
