In May, Linkin Park announced they were halting plans for a spring 2006 album, and expressed concerns about aggressive cost cutting at the label's Warner Music Group parent ahead of its IPO (read story on UG).
And now the band's guitarist Brad Delson recently told Billboard.com: "We're resolving our differences and we're looking forward to putting out a record next year. We're all focused on the creative process right now."
Without revealing details of its business arrangements, MC/vocalist Mike Shinoda said the band has "been working on new stuff for at least a month."
The new album will sport Shinoda's first production credit on one of the band's releases. "Of all the processes of Linkin Park, the guys all have their own special talents and the places they take charge and shine," he said. "One of my favorite places to be is in the studio."
Shinoda said it was way too early to describe the direction of the new material, but one general idea has already taken hold. "Rap/rock and new metal have been used to describe Linkin Park," he said. "But if you think of a song like 'Breaking the Habit,' it would be kind of difficult to describe that as rap/rock. It's not very accurate. On the next record, we're looking to break away from that label even further than we have in the past."
