Regarding the progress of the album songwriting and recording sessions, Caffery said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “Well, the music is being written and it keeps being written. As far as when it’s going to be finished, there is not a date. Let’s just put it this way that when we can, we will get music done. And the stuff that is written is very good. And when we get together and start playing, I have a feeling there’s gonna be new stuff that gets written too. I mean, in a perfect world, we get these shows done, we make a plan that’s actually going to stay straight and we can have an answer for this for an actual date.”
“I think it would be great to have some music, but for right now, I think the most important thing is that we’re going. And now that the SAVATAGE machine is moving, we’ll be able to answer these questions better, I think, now that it’s solidified that it’s no longer the rumor that SAVATAGE is playing. So we’ll have these answers more as we get together.”
Zak Stevens: “And we have been working on music. We’ve been recording stuff for a while now. I mean, I’ve got about probably eight or nine songs that I’ve been working on with [SAVATAGE mastermind] Jon [Oliva]. And he keeps writing more, like Chris said. So it’s just an ongoing process. Stuff is continuing to beat the old stuff. So Jon goes, ‘Oh, you like that? Well, here.’ And then something winds up beating something else, and then what you thought was gonna be the 10 songs on the record, now half of them have already gone to a new level. So we’ve got a lot of music. So it’s just gonna be a matter of time to when we can record it.”
