Nonpoint Officially Enters Studio to Record New Album

There's been a TON of anticipation surrounding Nonpoint's next album, when it would be recorded and when it will be released. Well, one of those very important questions has been officially answered as the rockers have announced they are officially in studio recording their next album, to be released through their new label Razor & Tie. They have gone into the studio with their guns drawn, bringing Grammy-nominated Producer Johnny-K to produce their seventh album. Johnny-K has worked with some of the best in the rock biz including Staind, Distrubed and Megadeath.

Nonpoint is coming off a split with long time bassist Ken MacMillan and guitarist Zach Broderick and there has been a lot of questions surrounding their replacements. According to Blabbermouth.com, Lead vocalist Elias Soriano commented on the new members:

"We're proud to officially announce the new members of NONPOINT. Dave Lizzio, Rasheed Thomas and Adam Woloszyn have been chased by bands in the Chicago area for years and somehow by a stroke of luck and timing, we now have three of the freshest, most talented players on our team. These guys are great players and even better people."

"From day one, the new writing process has been full of great ideas and open minds, and now adding Johnny K into the formula has Robb and I very excited. After listening to the demos, Johnny K said, 'It's easy to find someone to play guitar for a band. It's hard to accomplish what you have by finding Dave, Rasheed and Adam, and that's finding people who can write amazing riffs.' From that point on I knew: This new lineup and record will be epic in the chronicle of NONPOINT."

It is a testament to drummer Robb Rivera and Soriano's perseverance and character to be in the studio for the seventh album after all of the lineup changes and ups and downs the band has experienced in their time together. Soriano and Rivera are the only remaining original members and are the absolute heart and soul of the Nonpoint nation.

With the addition of Dave, Rasheed and Adam, it's an extremely exciting time for Nonpoint and their fans as the possibilities are endless. The amount of musicianship now in Nonpoint on top of the high level that Robb and Elias already have is astronomical and any hard rock or metal lover should be salivating at the possibilities for their new album. The album is due out in late Spring so be sure to keep your ears and eyes peeled. Be prepared to be blown away, Nonpoint style. Oh yes indeed, ladies and gentlement, Nonpoint is STILL ALIVE AND KICKING!
