Gary Graff from Billboard.com recently reported that Ted Nugent has some "stone cold motherfucking songs" ready to go when he takes his band into the studio later this year to start working on his first new studio album since 2007's Love Grenade.
Nugent tells Billboard.com that he has "well over a dozen" tracks written and "eight or nine that I have to capture on tape as soon as possible," including a couple that were demoed in Waco, Texas, prior to his current concert tour. The tour's title - Trample The Weak, Hurdle The Dead - will also be the title track of the album, which Nugent describes as "just a roustabout, a classic Motor City upheaval. You can hear my MITCH RYDER influences in there right away."
Other songs Nugent has in place include a "grinder" called 'I Love My Barbecue' and 'I Still Believe', which he likens to 1975's Motor City Madhouse. And he compares 'Never Stop Dreaming' to the RASCAL's 'I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore' and says it was inspired by his hunting trips with terminally ill youth.
"When you spend time around a campfire with these families and little five-, six-, seven-year-old boys and girls...it's so inspiring and so fortifying and so clear," Nugent explains. "['Never Stop Dreaming'] is as pure as the 'Fred Bear' moment, just a magic piece of music."Read more here.
