I grew up in an period of loving THIN LIZZY and UFO and bands like that, so write some cool THIN LIZZY-style riffs.’ However I actually needed it to be a file the place it actually took it again, saved it easy, saved it dry — no sampled drums and triggered kicks. Simply make it rock, just like the previous data you was once — simply clear, which you could crank up they usually sound good. I would like it to be the place somebody places it on and goes, ‘Oh, that is Chuck?’ Sort of listening to it. That is form of what I am searching for.”

On the time, he mentioned: “Nicely, it began [to be] within the works, however then issues simply form of bought held up. I used to be recruiting some guitar gamers during the last six months to write down a file with me, and I used to be gonna use a special guitar participant on each track to assist me write songs. Mark Morton, I’ve talked to him; he desires to work [with me]. I additionally need Gary Holt to write down some songs with me. Glen Drover [ex-MEGADETH] is gonna write some songs… I have never approached my cousin Stef [Stephen Carpenter] from the DEFTONES but, however I am gonna see if he’ll wanna write a track with me. I attempted to achieve out to Joe Bonamassa [to see if he wants to] write a track with me.”

And the course I wanna go is the previous traditional vinyl-sounding data — simply actual, clear and dry and massive. Actual tones — not compressed digital stuff. I would like it to be traditional sounding, however have it rock, have it bluesy. Have some metallic, however simply have it the place [it doesn’t sound like what people are used to hearing from me].”

He continued: “I’ve performed these compilation data for this Cleopatra label, and I’ve performed something from Michael Jackson to Christmas songs. And each time folks hear it, they go, ‘Man, that is form of cool.’ And I used to be desirous about it — it is enjoyable to do, and it is difficult and completely different. So once I consider a solo file, I would like it to be completely different — I would like each track to form of have its personal character and stand on their very own. In order that was form of my aim. If I do a solo file — perhaps I will do a couple of, but when I do one solo file, I would like it to actually be one thing that [is] difficult to me, completely different for me and completely different from [people’s] expectations, when any individual places it on, [but] that they will take pleasure in it nonetheless.

“So that is what I needed to do,” Chuck added. “So I have been telling [the various guitar players], ‘Simply begin writing. Put the track collectively for me. However do not suppose metallic. Do not suppose TESTAMENT. Do not suppose the bands you are in. Simply write one thing cool that is bought a vibe. And provides it to me. Let me do my factor on it.'”
