Music superstar and lead singer of one of the biggest bands in the world Jon Bon Jovi shared some updates regarding their new album called "This House Is Not For Sale" to be released in March 2016.
According to ultimateclassicrock.com, Bon Jovi has high hopes for the record as the band goes back to their roots. This new album will be the first time in a long time that the band got together and recorded the music. The previous albums had each member do tracking and recording in different venues with the producer patching everything up to make the final output.
"We were recording at different times and different rooms in the studio. That's not happening anymore," said Bon Jovi. "We went back to the place where we cut 'Runaway' in 1982 - where I used to sweep the floor and fetch coffee."
But old habits (die hard). I kept cleaning up the place and bringing them (keyboardist David Bryan and drummer Tico Torres) coffee," the 53-year-old singer and songwriter joked.
As seen on star2.com, Bon Jovi spoke about the songwriting and composition process for this new record. "The beauty of songwriting is taking some experience in your life and translating it into a feeling," the singer said. "We aren't jaded. Musical styles come and go. I can't pretend to do something just because it's popular. We're comfortable and confident in who we are - we've been around long enough."
When asked about writing another pop song like "You Give Love a Bad Name," the singer said he would avoid it because there are "a lot more important things to say".
"This record is about our integrity," Bon Jovi shared. "Integrity matters and we're at a stage of our career where we don't have anything left to prove."
"Some songs have a little more of the 'chip on my shoulder' sound which is OK for us to have right now," he admitted.
According to themusicuniverse.com, this new album is expected to be the first without guitarist Richie Sambora.
