Saliva, now fronted by Bobby Amaru who replaced frontman Josey Scott, are planning to record a new album in January with an eye for a late spring release via their new label deal with Rumbum Records.The band told fans of the new deal via Facebook with the following post: "We're excited to say that we just signed a new record deal with Rumbum Records! It's owned by Luis Bacardi(yes, as in the rum). On tour right now til Dec 9th, and then it's back home to finish writing the album. Then we're planning on recording in January for a release date some time in the spring. We can't wait to bring some new rock to you guys next year!"
The official announcement that followed included these comments from Amaru and label head Bacardi: "We want to sell 10 million records," said Amaru. "We are all looking forward to getting in the studio and recording an album that will do just that. In the end what's most important is coming out with songs that we're excited to play, that our fans are excited to hear and that the combination of the two results in a great tour. That's what it's all about."
"The addition of Saliva further expands our reputation of cultivating artists that have a unique sound and style," said Luis Bacardi, owner of Rum Bum Records. "We are thrilled to continue to expand our artist portfolio with quality musicians and look forward to playing a significant role in the band's continued success."
