    Anybody know when they`re touring or releasing an album again, or even making an album?
    i remembered hearing earlier this year that they had finally found a new singer, but heard nothing about it again for quite a while,
    just curious if there is any other fans on the forum that might know more info than i do.

    I don't think they did find a new singer, despite the rumours earlier this year. They were mostly based around Corey Taylor of Shitknot / Stone Sour joining the band. Apparently they did get together but for whatever reason things didn't work out.

    I think they've also looked at getting Miles Kennedy from Alter Bridge to work with them, but he's happy sticking with AB (good choice imo).

    Oh right, i heard the corey taylor rumour it was very persistant, it was fueled by the fact that the bassist i forget his name right now for some reason, was praising Corey taylor as being an excellent singer and songwriter or something like that.
    I like corey taylor but i knew it was unlikely as the time he was in two bands, and i don`t think he could of managed three.
    I heard a rumour of Lenny Kravitz being a possibility aswell before.

    I did hear a rumour after that, something about the band rehearshing with a singer but that could of been Miles Kennedy like you said,
    wish they would find a new singer already how long does it take.
