DISTURBED is planning to return to the studio later this year to record an acoustic EP before beginning work on the follow-up to 2015’s “Immortalized” album.
Prior to the arrival of “Immortalized”, DISTURBED had been on hiatus since the fall of 2011, after completing the touring cycle for its previous studio effort, “Asylum”, and issuing a rarities collection called “The Lost Children”.
Asked by Germany’s Rock Antenne how long fans will have to wait before the release of the next DISTURBED album, vocalist David Draiman said: “Well, the plan at this particular point in time is to take a little bit of time off, spend some time with our families, get some personal stuff done. We have an acoustic EP that we’re working on. That’s something we’ve wanted to do for years that we just never had the time or the opportunity to. So that we’ll be working on in between our LP releases. And then probably 2018 we will head back into the studio to record the next record and hopefully have a release sometime in late 2018 and hit the road 2019 again.”
