Kerrang recently did a short interview with Tom about the upcoming album.
.
How are things shaping up with the new record?
“We’re basically still at the planning stages. We’re working through our ideas about how the scenes and the landscapes of what the music should encapsulate will be. We do have some songs or at least parts of songs floating around, but nothing is set in stone just yet. We do a lot of talking and planning before we record and we’re just enjoying that part of the next album process so far.”
Do you have a message in mind for this record?
“Yeah, I do but I really don’t want to go into it right now because that could all change at any point and I don’t want fans getting excited or expecting something that ends up changing. Sorry, but things are still at such an early stage I’d like to hold off revealing anything. I will tell you right now the record is starting to come alive inside of me, in my bedroom and in the books I’m reading to find inspiration from.”
Any idea when you plan to record yet?
“I want to start right now! I feel like I’m ready to go but deep down I know that it’s not the right time yet and we have to tie some things up first. I think we’re probably going to hit the studio in ort around the first week of January if all goes to plan.”
Do you have a message for AVA fans?
“My only message to the Angels & Airwaves fans is a big thank you. Thank you for having amazing, amazing, amazing taste! The band is continuing to grow thanks to you guys and, next year, I promise you will feel like our music is lifting you off the ground and taking you to a whole different world.”
