Dust Bolt Working On Album
Dust Bolt vocalist & guitarist Lenny Breuss has issued the following announcement about an upcoming album:
"We are already working on the next album and plan to visit the studio early next year! We are really excited, full of ideas and can't wait to come out with another record! It will contain a mixture of both previous albums but also lots of new stuff! The touring we did since 'Awake the Riot' gave us lots of inspiration for the new songs and they are going to be brutal!!
"We´ll take some time over winter to concentrate on the final writing process but with the new album a major part of us will also be finished with their educations and studies, which means that we will be able to tour way more and visit countries we haven´t been yet! We can´t wait!! Be prepared!"
