On the heels of their recent live DVD release, Tesla are set to release Forever More, their first new studio album in four years on October 7th.
My compadre Chris Akin caught up with Tesla guitarist Dave Rude for an interview on last night’s edition of The Classic Metal Show. The interview covers a lot of ground and includes of course, discussion about the live DVD, and plenty of dirt on the upcoming studio album, which finds the band reuniting with producer Terry Thomas (Bad Company, etc.) who produced the 1994 Tesla release Bust A Nut. Engineer Michael Rosen, who engineered the band’s last studio release Into The Now, returns for engineering duties on Forever More.
Tesla guitarist Frank Hannon spoke about the new CD recently on the band’s official site:
We started writing new songs for this album the first week of January, while simultaneously planning a mid-West tour of America in February and recording our COMIN’ ATCHA LIVE! 2008 DVD while we were on the road. Coming home in March, we hired Terry to jump back into writing and recording music with us while we edited the DVD and routed a summer tour of Europe. We’re riding a wave of energy that doesn’t come easy for a band of rookies much less a band whose been doing this for over 20 years – and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
