Mötley Crüe singer Vince Neil announced Thursday via Twitter that he and his band are recording together again.
“Exciting news!,” Neil tweeted. “I'll be going back in [the] recording studio in a few weeks with the boys to record four brand new Mötley Crüe tracks! Rock on!”
A few hours later, he acknowledged that the band agreed not to tour again – but never said there wouldn’t be new music.
“We never broke up or said we would never make music again,” he added. “Hope this clears it up.”
Much was made about a recent photo that appeared to show Mötley Crüe rhythm section Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee in a recording studio with Canadian producer Bob Rock.
The speculation intensified after Lee shared a clip of himself apparently tracking drums. Lee captioned the images, “It's that new s**t!!!!”
Some fans initially speculated that Lee and Sixx were working on music for the film adaptation of Mötley Crüe's biography, The Dirt - Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band.
It's possible Crüe is planning to include the new songs on the film's soundtrack, but we'll have to wait for another announcement to find out for sure.
