Wednesday 13 To Record New Album This Week

Wednesday 13 (ex-MURDERDOLLS) will begin recording the follow-up to 2006's "Fang Bang" this week. Wednesday has written and plans to record 20 songs for the latest outing, titled "Skeletons". Tentative songtitles include "From Here To the Hearse", "Dead Carolina", "All American Massacre" and "Not Another Teenage Anthem".

Says Wednesday 13, "I'm really excited about the new music, it's totally and completely different than 'Fang Bang'!!! The new music is pretty heavy and probably the most dark and personal record I have ever written."

In other news, Wednesday 13 has sent notice to Rykodisc — the label which released "Fang Bang" — that they have missed their window to exercise their contractual option to release the next WEDNESDAY 13 CD.

"'Fang Bang' has done really well and it's without a lot of support from Rykodisc," says Wednesday 13. "I am not badmouthing them. The fact is, the week we signed to Rykodisc the president of the label and our A&R guy left to go to another label and then a few days later, Ryko, like many labels, had more staff cuts, including our publicist and radio guy. They did the best they could, given the situation. In the past year, I have done more touring, both overseas and in the U.S., than I ever have. With the help of my booking agent, manager and the great support of the fans, we have continued to grow our audience."

Also on the Wednesday 13-related front, he has recruited former MISTER MONSTER/MICHALE GRAVES guitarist J-Sin Trioxin to fill the vacant guitar slot.
