Flynn took guitar lessons and vocal lessons to help the band get to the next level with their new album, Unto The Locust, and he said Rockstar Mayhem and IRON MAIDEN are to thank for that.
"It was great unlearn," says Flynn. "I've never had singing lessons. I had to unlearn 17 years of bad habits I had developed. It was just so hard! I've been playing guitar for half my life, I'm a king at this. It was a cool vulnerable place to write from."Check out the Artisan News report below:
Flynn recently posted the following update regarding the band’s new album via his Twitter: “And the record... is... done...”
