 LOS ANGELES (Staind.com) - Staind guitarist Mike Mushok will begin working on the band's new album while the group takes a break, according to staind.com.
On Friday (March 8), the band's official site posted that during the band's time off singer Aaron Lewis will spend time with his family, while "Mike will start putting together the pieces of songs he's been working on for the next Staind record.
