Earth Crisis to record new album

Mtv.com reports that Earth Crisis is currently writing material for a new album, their first in roughly eight years. Band frontman Karl Buechner had the following to say:

"We do plan on putting out a record. We've got six songs so far, and hopefully, we'll record them this year. Hopefully, we'll be playing some of these news songs we've written [on the upcoming tour]. The best way to describe [the new material] is it's a mixture between Destroy the Machines and Breed the Killers. Stylistically, it's most like songs from those albums."

The new album will reportedly be available in early-2009.
