Writing process for the new album is DONE!

Here we go!! After whole 10 months (with few breaks) in Los Angeles Pierre and Chuckem yesterday officially wrapped the writing process of the lyrics for the new Simple Plan album. Chuck announced it on his Twitter profile yesterday:

Just finishing our last day of songwriting for the album…for now…lol. big meeting next week to figure out a plan for studio, recording!

As always you will be the 1st to know everything! 10 months of writing has been amazing!! we are soooo excited about the songs!

Well that should mean that in June, the guys should be in the studio already – and then they have the whole summer for recording and few months of post-production after that. Which means they should have the album out in late fall 2010. Exciting, isn’t it? Now let’s sum up what we know about the upcoming album already. Here are the basic facts:

– Simple Plan collaborated on the lyrics during the writing process with Claude Kelly, Rivers Cuomo, Matt Squire, Jim Irvin, Julian Emery, Michael Warren and maybe even more song-writers

– we already know few song-titles – the only one which is confirmed by the band (by Chuck in particular) is “This Song Saved My Life” – which is a song that is based on fans’ feelings about Simple Plan, about how the band has helped them through the years in the worst periods of their lives

– there are also other song-titles we are aware of, though we don’t know if they are for old or new songs and if they even are going to be on the new album ot not. These titles include: Paralysed, You Suck At Love, Famous For Nothing and Astronaut

– speaking of the songs, the direction that the album should be going for (according to Chuck again) should be “fun”. The album is supposed to be based on fast and funny songs that should be similar to the No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls times (also, it wouldn’t be SP if the album didn’t include some serious songs as well) and we can also expect songs like Jump (from Still Not Getting Any…)

Next week should bring us more answers to our questions on the upcoming album and we should also finally find out the date when the guys would be hitting the studio, so don’t forget to check SimplePlan.cz for the latest updates. :)
