Finally, fans of the legendary rock band Bon Jovi have something to look forward to as band vocalist Jon Bon Jovi confirmed the completion of their upcoming album, "This House is Not for Sale."
After experiencing several crossroads in 2015, the band is now geared to go back to the music scene with their new LP and a potential tour in early 2017. With things finally over with Mercury Records, the band now teaming up with Universal Music Group and is expected to make a huge comeback once their new album is out.
"The record is done and it is just being mixed now. I'm ecstatic with it if for nothing else, out of pain comes great songs and I'm really, really happy with the record," Bon Jovi posted in their Twitter account. "I think we've got a fantastic representation of who we are at this time."
Perhaps, the only thing that is missing right now is the reunion between the band and its original guitarist, Richie Sambora. The two parties have been away from each other for three years now and it looks like that hiatus will not be broken anytime soon as Sambora has yet to shape up for work according to Bon Jovi.
"I have not seen him in over three years. He just didn't show up for work anymore," App quoted Bon Jovi saying. "And that's the truth of the matter."
Sambora departed his band mates in April 2013 during the "Because We Can" tour. Initially, the reason for his departure was he refused to go to rehab even after his band mates told him so. This caused a rift among them but in 2015, both parties said that there is no bad blood as they have been together for three decades. Nevertheless, Bon Jovi guaranteed that they will bring the same quality of music even without the person who was vital for their unique sound and style.
"Life goes on," Bon Jovi further added. "You know, being in a rock band is not a life sentence... you have other things in your life that you care to do. But it's OK, because you share your art as long as you choose to share it."
The album is all set for release in September 2016. Here is a fan-made trailer for the upcoming album.
