Static-X have just announced the new album Project: Regeneration Vol. 2, which features the final recordings of late frontman Wayne Static. The album is set to be released on November 3rd later this year, and will serve as a follow up to the group’s 2020 release, Project: Regeneration Vol. 1. Serving as a teaser for the upcoming record, the group has debuted a music video for their cover of the Nine Inch Nails hit “Terrible Lie.
The cover, taken off NIN’s debut album Pretty Hate Machine, features Wayne’s vocals while the rest of the band — the surviving Wisconsin Death Trip lineup of bassist Tony Campos, guitarist Koichi Fukuda and drummer Ken Jay as well as anonymous vocalist and producer Xer0 — offer their own contributions to the instrumental component. Campos commented on the upcoming release sharing his excitement.
“I am so happy that the recording for ‘Project: Regeneration Vol. 2′ is finally finished, and the album is currently being mixed by our long-time producer Ulrich Wild. The only thing left is for the vinyl manufacturing to be completed. I am proud to say that between ‘Project: Regeneration Vol. 1′ and ‘Project: Regeneration Vol. 2,’ we have been able to bring the fans 25 brand new Static-X songs, most of which feature Wayne Static on lead vocals. Nobody would have imagined that any of this could even be possible a few short years ago.”
