Static-X are working on some big projects, including new music

As reported from MetalInjection, Tony Campos, the bassist for Static-X, has revealed that after finishing their long-awaited documentary, the band is thinking of recording new songs with their present lineup. At last month’s Bloodstock Open Air festival, Campos disclosed this to Bloodstock TV’s Oran O’Beirne.

We’ve been talking about writing some new material, some new songs. We have a documentary that’s in the works right now. So we’re gonna finish that first. And then, once we drop that, then we’ll revisit going in and writing some new material. I don’t wanna juggle too many plates. Let’s just finish [the documentary]. Then we can focus all of our attention on new material.

The documentary will arrive next year.

Yeah, that’s what we’re shooting for. We’re in editing process now. All the footage is done. We’ve just gotta find the right edit. And we’ll get done with this run here, we’ll get done with the run in the U.S. coming up with Mudvayne, and then we’ll spend the rest of the year working on that.

In addition to the final recordings of the late frontman Wayne Static, Static-X‘s most recent two albums, “Project Regeneration Vol. 1” in 2020 and “Project Regeneration Vol. 2” in 2024, included the remaining members of the Wisconsin Death Trip lineup: Campos, drummer Ken Jay, and guitarist Koichi Fukuda. Ulrich Wild, a longtime collaborator, mixed and mastered both tracks, while vocalist Xer0 (who is generally thought to be Edsel Dope) produced both. Campos’ remarks are the first indication that Static-X may pursue original music in their present era, even if the band is currently aggressively touring in support of the “Project Regeneration” albums.
