New Simple Plan album to have Justin Timberlake influences

After a year of writing material and three months of recording Simple Plan is now ready to release their self-titled third studio album.

Chuck Comeau, baterist of the band, says that when they were in the studio working on the album they were looking for a whole new sound. A stand-out track called “The End” is a different and cool-sounding song with beats, which is something they haven`t used before, and Pierre Bouvier`s (lead singer) vocals are so much more layered in it, Comeau explains.

He also adds: “We were discovering new music that had us excited,” “Modern-sounding records, like the Justin Timberlake record. It takes a lot of balls to admit you like it, but it’s amazing.”

Even as the band members embrace a more embellished sound, Comeau is keen to emphasize that the group’s SoCal punk roots shine through on the new set.

Simple Plan, which includes producers: Dave Fortman, Arnold Lanni and Danja Nate Hills (Nelly Furtado, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake) , is set to hit stores in the USA on February 12.
