Vocalist Tim Lambesis has issued the following update on behalf of As I Lay Dying:

"Songwriting has been going well with about 6-7 songs done. We decided to officially start recording the new As I Lay Dying album on October 17. At that point we'll record as many songs as we can and then finish the album around the new year. I think this will be a good way to spread out our songwriting since most of our previous records have always been written within a few months."

Vocalist Tim Lambesis adds: "It's hard to believe that we've been a band for as long as we have yet have never released an official DVD documenting our first 7 years. As a result, we've included so much content that you hardly have to like our music to be entertained. With that said, it feels good knowing how many diehard fans over the years have supported our band and their simple enjoyment of our music has given us the chance to see the world!"
