After wrapping up a tour with Whores and Wild Throne, the Portland, OR rockers in Red Fang are set to return to the studio in early 2016 to start work on a new album, their follow up to 2013’s Whales and Leeches on Relapse Records.

Said bassist Aaron Beam in a recent interview with Ghost Cult Mag:

“We’ve already got three songs that are totally done, and we’ve got pieces of…I don’t know…30 more songs worth of material. We’ve got to start as soon as we get back from this tour we’re gonna lock in and start bashing out the songs and turning them into finishing them. We have studio time tentatively booked for end of February or beginning of March.”

“We’re really buckling down now. These tour things come up and A) you’ve got to make money and B) we wanted to try out these songs on the road as well and dial them in a little bit better and see how they’re working. That really helped a lot.”

One of the songs on the new album is something you’ve probably already heard before. “The Shadows” came out in 2014 on a Scion A/V (you can listen to it here), but as Beams explains, “we’ll do an updated version of it.”
