Breaking Benjamin‘s guitarists Jasen Rauch and Keith Wallen were recently interviewed on FM99 WNOR radio station and updated the progress of band’s current recording sessions for the follow up album to 2020’s “Aurora”.

Rauch said, “We’re definitely recording. We’ve been writing for a while. Our tour schedule keeps things kind of intermittent. So it’s hard to get… We’ll go on a tour. We’re out for quite a while, come home. Everybody wants to go see their family, have some downtime or whatever. And then it may only be a six-week turnaround, a 10-week turnaround, till we’ve gotta go back out and start prepping for the other thing. Keith and I do some work on the side with other bands, other projects. Keith’s got his solo stuff, which is rad… But as far as recording goes, it’s been so long since we’ve had an album out, we feel somewhat precious about it and are just making sure our quality control is there. So we are actually working, we are actually recording. We have songs that are finished, and it’s just gonna be about all the business stuff —interfacing with the label and release schedule, what windows are open, that kind of thing, and then as far as us fitting in those recordings around the tour schedule.”

Rauch added, “A lot of bands would go and lock themselves away for three or four months in the studio. We’re opting not to do that. We’re doing a lot remote and things like that.”
