In a conversation with Full Metal Jackie on her radio show, Parkway Drive’s Winston McCall revealed a few details about the working process on new music and potentially a new album. First of all, he says that the latter is very likely:
"And we're definitely working on new music that I guess an album will be the end result of it."
When asked about a possible timeframe, he explains why it’s not so easy to pin down:
"No, not really. That's the thing. We're working literally every day. We have a bunch that we are actually working on and looking to make time for. But I guess the blessing and the curse that we've had going on is we've just had crazy stuff pop up for us, which have been huge opportunities that we can't say no to, which has meant we've just had to push the recording and the writing part back by months as things happen.
Like, playing in the Opera House literally just got dropped in our lap and that was gonna be writing time and all of a sudden we had six months to create an orchestral show for a for the Opera House in Sydney. So things like that keep popping up and there's a bunch more happening as well. And in the meantime, we still work while we can. So, I can't say, "Hey, expect it now." Because who knows at this point in time? I keep getting surprised. Not surprises, but they're surprising."
So it could very well be that we’ll be presented with a new album soon, simply depending on how many other projects Parkway Drive end up focusing on in the meantime.
Speaking of, here’s the first impression of the band’s upcoming concert film, “LIVE AT THE SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE”:
