The new video also features appearances from Buckcherry's Josh Todd and Papa Roach mainman Jacoby Shaddix.
As previously reported Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx recently spoke to Rolling Stone about
the new album.
Several exceprts from the interview are included below.
Rollingstone.com: Tell me about the new record.
Sixx: "It's called Sink To Los Angeles. Mick Mars and I started
writing about four months ago. I had done a record with James Michael
and DJ Ash for my side project, and we had such an amazing chemistry
together that me and Mick and James and DJ were just on a songwriting
mission from hell. It was amazing. We brought in another friend called
Marty Frederickson. Doing the whole Heroin Diaries project really
helped me to focus on a specific issue. Like, instead of writing a love
song, make it about a moment. Make it about the kiss. So for this, what
we really wanted to do is take the concept of the autobiography, The
Dirt, and make it into songs. I was really trying lyrically to do that,
and to work so closely with Mick and really develop the phenomenal
songs working with James and Marty and DJ Ash. For the first record
we've done in 10 years, it's really, really, really good. I got to tell
ya. I'm very excited."
Rollingstone.com: Is the sound similar to any previous Mötley Crüe records that you could compare it to?
Sixx: "You know, there's a sound with Mötley Crüe, and it comes
with Vince's voice, which is such an important part of the show, and
Mick's guitar. And the way Tommy and me play together is an important
part of it. When we're all together, it really is Mötley Crüe, but
we've done albums, like Generation Swine, where we went left of center
just to see what it felt like. But this album feels a little truer our
core. You hear something like 'Saints Of Los Angeles' and you don't go,
'Who's this? It kind of sounds like Mötley Crüe.' You go, 'Fuck, new
Mötley Crüe!' It would be like AC/DC coming on the radio with a new
record, or Aerosmith. You either like the band or you don't like the
band. It's not the band trying to make you like them. It's the band
doing what they do. And that's our strong point."
Rollingstone.com: I think Mötley Crüe is entering a period where they are now a classic band. Do you agree?
Sixx: "I'm seeing it. I think we're still like a band that goes out
and tears it up and I don't really pay attention. That's my fucking
problem. Someone goes to me the other day, 'I don't think you've
realized what you've done' and I go, 'What do you mean?' and he says
'Well, you just walk around the streets like you're just some guy' and
I say, 'Well I am some guy!" and he goes 'No dude, you don't
understand. You guys are becoming those guys that you grew up with!'
And I'm like, 'Oh! Well that's kind of cool.' So yeah, it's kind of
cool."
