You can check out the full interview HERE but here&#8217;s a little snippet for ya:<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you feel like \u2018F8\u2019 represents both for Five Finger Death Punch but also for you as an individual?<\/strong><br \/><em>\u201cIt seems as though the album is doing exactly what it\u2019s supposed to be doing &#8211; people are actually understanding what this album is. For me, I feel like it\u2019s a milestone. It\u2019s the monolith that stands out in the middle of our career as probably the most important record, or what will be the most important record, we\u2019ve ever made. I think that\u2019s because of a couple of things. This is our eighth record, and for any band to do eight records is huge. Especially considering this is our eighth in 13 years, that\u2019s a lot of touring and recording and touring and recording. We work hard. This band didn\u2019t get to where we are because we did things by half. We\u2019ve worked our fucking asses off. It\u2019s not some major label puppet bullshit. This is a real band with real problems that we hid from the world as much as we could. But we became an arena-headlining band even with all of the crazy shit happening around us.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So two years ago things escalated to a different level. We were on tour with&nbsp;Sixx:AM, Nicki Sixx\u2019s side-project, and Nikki came over to us and said, \u2018I don\u2019t know what to say. I\u2019ve done a bunch of dumb shit in my life, I\u2019ve died twice, but you guys need to slow down\u2019. From&nbsp;Jonathan Davis&nbsp;to&nbsp;Rob Halford, everybody had the same conversation with our band. So two years ago was when we hit the wall. Ivan had to stop and go to rehab. Everybody set about getting sober. So with that, this record is the first record where everybody is focused and completely sober and wanting to prove a point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>So for you guys the progression comes from the substance of your songs and what they mean rather than what they sound like?<\/strong><br \/><em>\u201cExactly. For us this record happened organically. We are the same people in the band as before so the same music was coming out as the seven times before. But because the guys got sober, a sober mind is completely different. So we managed to infuse these new ideas with this new behaviour. Even the work ethic of the band got amplified. All of those things brought a new lease of excitement. We have all these gold records that we made while everybody was out of their minds, so what can we do when we\u2019re not? This is what this band was always supposed to be.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You can pick up the record in form of this awesome boxset exclusively from our mates over at EMP.
