Foreigner’s Kelly Hansen says that it is unlikely that the band will release a new studio album. “I think that you’re likely to hear new songs,” he told The Rockpit. “I don’t know if it makes sense to do an entire CD anymore in this day and age. The one story that I constantly tell is that we took a year in 2009 to create Can’t Slow Down, and we were on the road in America and Europe, and in all our ‘off’ time, we were writing and recording in New York and L.A. Mick [Jones, guitar] was coming out to L.A., and it was incredibly exhausting, it was a lot of hard work, it took up any empty time that we had and our energy, and it took huge amounts of money to complete that record. And the day that it was released, people were trading it for free on the Internet. That’s really disappointing, when you know how much time and effort you put into something.” “I don’t think that model really works anymore; I think it’s better to do a song or two at a time,” he added. Foreigner last released Can’t Slow Down nearly a decade ago. Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
