Vegan/edge hardcore heroes Earth Crisis have revealed that they are currently writing material for their next album. Guitar player Scott Crouse says, "So far we have about four new songs written and are hoping to start working on vocals this fall. The plan is to have ten new songs and re-record a few older songs that are live set staples." The band tentatively hopes to begin tracking the effort in January with an "as-of-yet undetermined producer."

Meanwhile, Crouse had the following to say about the premature end of last weekend's Sound and Fury Festival: "It was a weekend of cancelled flights, wondering if all the members would even make it out here, and three trips to LAX. Hey, at least we can all say we saw a motorcycle in the pit, right?"
