Social Distortion To Begin Work On New Album After Touring

The Denver Post recently sat down with Social Distortion's Mike Ness to get a status update on the band's follow up to 2004's "Sex, Love and Rock 'n' Roll":

"We're writing, and we're doing a new song in the set. But we have to stop performing live before we can do anything in the studio, but we keep booking work. We might get a rest one of these days. You really do have to stop for a while and get yourself into reflection time and get into writing mode before that can start. I can multitask, but it's really us having to say, "No more shows, we've got to start writing," and we won't be at that point until February at the earliest."

The band is embarking on a series of multi-day stops in California cities beginning in January. They are also supporting their new "hits" compilation, Greatest Hits which also debuted the new track, "Far Behind."

no!!!!! a greatest hits cd usually means the end of the band will be soon. I hope not in this case.

"Don't Drag Me Down" was in fact the song that got me playing music almost 4 years ago. Social Distortion is one of the greatest badass bands of all time. Although dennis danell is gone, they still continue to blow my mind! I loved Sex, Love,and Rock and Roll! That was awesome.
