NEW NEWS ON "CARDIOLOGY", GC's new album
Good Charlotte are well on the way to completing their brand new album Cardiology, the follow-up to 2007's Good Morning Revival. In an exclusive interview with Kerrang!, the band's frontman Joel Madden reveals how the group have already written 20 songs, and are heading back to the punk roots of their past.
"We are probably two weeks away from from being done with the writing," says Joel, who along with brother Benji will shortly travel to Canada to escape the distractions of home and nail down the finer details fo the album. "It's leaning much more towards a straight-up rock or pop-punk sound. We've grown up a lot on the writing front."
The title - Cardiology - comes from the album's lyrical content, which Joel explains is "all connected to the heart."
"They're not necessarily love songs," he states. "It's about exploring the way that you can love, not love, lose love and everything in between."
Joel reveals that producers lined up for the new album may include Don Gilmore (Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne), (English pop producer) Trevor Horn and John Feldmann (Atreyu, The Used).
"It's important to us to work with a producer that believe in us," says Madden. "When someone really gets behind us and tells us that they believe in what we're doing, it counts for more than almost anthing else."
Cardiology will be out in 2009. Their latest album, The Greatest Remixes, is out now via Epic.

I wonder if this album will put them back on top of the charts? In a way, I hope it does, but the selfish part of me doesn't want a bunch of new "trend loving" kids jumping on the GC band wagon just because they are getting played on the radio again. You know what I mean???

I know exactly what you mean. I want GC to be recognized and I'm proud of them..but at the same time...I don't want GC to be swamped with new fans who jump on the GC 'band wagon' just because they think GC is the trend at the moment. I want people to enjoy GC for their music not just because GC is the trend..if that makes sense. :) But whatever..I'm sure GC will welcome any new fans they get off of the next album. :) We still will be with GC! :)
