Even though the band recorded two albums worth of material this time around, singer Ivan Moody said he’s not a fan of working in the studio. “No, I don’t spend a lot of time in the studio, man,” he said. “I truly don’t. I’ll be in there when I have to. I hate the containment, I can’t stand the schedule crap. The monotony drives me frickin’ crazy, you know, ‘Do it again, do it again, let’s try that again,’ and it’s just, it’s so frustrating to me. Sitting in the booth and feeling like, basically it’s just a cold, dead coffin, and a lot of the time people want to know why my lyrics are so angry — that has a lot to do with it.”
The first single from “Volume 1”, “Lift Me Up”, featured Judas Priest singer Rob Halford and hit the top of the rock radio chart.
“Volume 1” has sold more than 291,000 copies to date. Five Finger Death Punch’s three previous albums have all gone gold for sales of 500,000 copies or more.
