Guitarist Rich Ward (FOZZY, STUCK MOJO) has checked in with the following update:

"Just got back from the KISS / MÖTLEY CRÜE show here in Atlanta. Mötley was amazing! The production was one of the best I have ever seen, the audio mix was great, and the band played really well. KISS was really good, but Paul's voice was shot. I really felt bad for the guy, as I know what it's like to have to sing when you voice is in bad shape. Gene's voice, his tone, and his playing were all amazing. He had a great show. I'd recommend this show if you get a chance to see it."

As previously reported, Fozzy have announced the August 14th release of Sin And Bones, their new studio album and debut release with Century Media Records. After years of non-stop touring in Europe, the band will embark on the first US tour of their 12-year career, joining SHINEDOWN, GODSMACK, STAIND and PAPA ROACH on this summer's Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival.

The brainchild of WWE superstar Chris Jericho and Stuck Mojo mastermind Rich Ward, Fozzy have delivered their hardest-hitting album to date with Sin And Bones. Frontman Chris Jericho comments, "It's the typical cliché, but Sin And Bones really is the best thing we've ever done. We've taken the heavy yet ultra-melodic style that has become Fozzy's trademark to the next level and I guarantee these songs will blow all of you away!"

Fozzy just returned from the United Kingdom, where they appeared alongside METALLICA and BLACK SABBATH at the Download Festival, performed at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards - which Chris Jericho hosted - and played sold-out shows with UGLY KID JOE and SOiL.
