Live Nation recently spoke with Buckcherry guitarist Keith Nelson and vocalist Josh Todd to get a number fans questions answered. The resulting interview can be viewed here.
Buckcherry's new album, "All Night Long," will be released on August 3rd and the first 20,000 fans to pick up a copy at Best Buy will find something extra in the package — a six-song acoustic EP containing five tracks that have never been heard before. Keith Nelson told The Pulse of Radio how this came out. "What a lot of people don't know about this record is that it started off as an acoustic record," he said " As we progressed, it became pretty evident that it wasn't gonna be an acoustic record, it was gonna be a full-on electric rock 'n' roll record. But I could not let go of the idea of some of these songs that we had, so what we did while we were in there is we finished some of those songs acoustically and we recorded them."
Included in the EP will be four brand new songs recorded during the "All Night Long" sessions, an acoustic version of the album track "These Things," and the song "Black Butterfly," which was left off the band's 2008 album of the same name.
The EP will be titled "Reckless Sons" and will come with special artwork and packaging.
"Reckless Sons" EP track listing:
1. These Things 2. Fire Off Your Guns 3. Black Butterfly 4. King of Kings 5. My Friend 6. Grace
