Finally, we get an update on his progress writing new music from home over the last few months.

chris does not age he looks just as he was 10 years ago.

@chasepavlich6171 3 года назад

When he mentioned the struggle with replicating the songs live, I immediately thought of the a million reverse snares in the album

@MrRazta666 3 года назад

The vocals on that album is soooooooooooo wonderful, like so many type of screams on it and there's a lot of singing too. Must be so hard to do it live tho hahaha. But i think chris will nailed it regardless

@sourgummyworms45 3 года назад

I hope he kinda changes up the structure of Undead Ahead or just do it in their current style. It's somewhat likely due to him saying he wasn't fond of it.

Can’t wait to hear the band play City Lights! It’s been a long time. And I know Motionless is going to bring it with their next album, especially with the time their taking. They aren’t being rushed or have a deadline as of yet, and with these guys, only good quality can come of that.

I promise it’s worth it. He is the sweetest person ever and I met him completely by chance! Many people already asked for photos, and he took the time to take a photo with me, like he even turned around and said, “you too? Okay come here!” With a smile on his face. Totally cool!!!
