John 5 Says New Mötley Crüe Music “It Is Coming, Baby”
Who’s excited for some new Mötley Crüe? Well, following the release of “Dogs of War,” I’m pretty sure only Mötley Crüe is excited about new Mötley Crüe. But like it or not, here it comes!
In an appearance yesterday on Sirius XM’s Trunk Nation with Eddie Trunk (as transcribed by Blabbermouth), current Mötley Crüe guitarist John 5 was asked if there was new music coming and John 5 confirmed it in the creepiest way humanly possible:
“Yeah, actually, that’s gonna be coming very soon. Actually, coming very, very soon. There’s gonna be some announcements coming up very soon, and I can’t really spill the beans now, but it is coming, baby. It is coming.”
I would gladly pay John 5 to never say “It is coming, baby, it is coming” ever again. Then again, I would probably pay to never have to hear Mötley Crüe play “Dogs of War” again. “Dogs of War” answers the question “What it sound like if a piece of music had frosted tips?” So color me uninterested in the follow up. And, having heard John 5 describe what the next Crüe song will sound like, I want to hear it even less now:
“Yes. Yeah. And it’s so cool. It reminds me of… It’s just like a little old AEROSMITH. I don’t know. It’s just that MÖTLEY cool riff. And Nikki [Sixx, Mötley Crüe bassist and main songwriter] is just amazing with that melody and all that stuff. He’s just incredible with those lyrics and melodies. So I’m really excited for the song to come out. I think people are going to super, super dig it.”
Mötley Crüe that sounds like Aerosmith? I’ll pass. But then again, Nikki Sixx told us at one point that the new Mötley Crüe music would sound like a mix between country and hip-hop, and then later said that it was a joke and that the media should have called to check up on that. However, as Sixx has yet to provide MetalSucks with the phone number for the hotline we’re supposed to call to verify if anything the band says at any time is bullshit or not, for all we know the their next song might actually sound like Wesley Willis fronting Pussy Galore. You know what, that I might actually be interested in.
