When it comes down to vocals, I want to hear something that's going to be melodic. David's always had those animalistic instincts of making those gut sounds, or whatever you want to call it. But he's developed a really strong singing voice.
More Quotes from Dan Donegan:
At this point, we were together for just over two years,Dan Donegan
For those of you who have an issue with the decisions we make in this band, that's too bad. Neither us nor John have any issues and that is all that matters. We shouldn't have to defend ourselves on how this band operates. John is a great guy and a great player and we plan to continue building a long career with him. We are more open to our fans than any band I know. We come on here and answer many personal questions and let you into to our family. Who else does that Some of you just feel that it isn't enough. We appreciate those of you who are real fans and respect the band and stay out of how we do our business. Find something new to talk about. This is how it is, so deal with it. Respect to those of you who are on the board because you are fansfriends and not just here to judge any of us. We have a new CD coming out this Tuesday Sept. 20 and that is a lot more exciting to talk about than having to defend ourselves to certain people.

When we started writing, we went back to the basics of just kind of jamming out riffs, ... That brought us back to some of our influences. It made the songs seem like some of them could use guitar solos. We just thought we would expand on that. We're trying to contribute in our way bringing this element back to rock music.

It's always fun to play a lot of the more aggressive tracks, like the title track '10,000 Fists,' ... It's just a high energy song and it's aggressive and there's some really cool double bass parts going on and an aggressive riff. That's gonna be a good live song because it definitely gets the blood flowing.

We've always been more influenced by bands like IRON MAIDEN and BLACK SABBATH and JUDAS PRIEST , which were aggressive but still had melody.
