A teaser for the new album from Chickenfoot, now officially titled Chickenfoot III (It was previously thought the album would be titled Chickenfoot IV), has been released online. You can listen to the teaser below.
Chickenfoot III will be released in late September via eOne Music in North America.
According to lead singer Sammy Hagar, the Chickenfoot III album cover and first video will be in 3D.
"We took a giant step on this record," Hagar recently told Artisan News. "It still sounds like Chickenfoot, 'cause it's the same guys, but I think the experience that we had together on tour and the success of the last record really opened us up to who and what we are."
As previously reported, the first single from Chickenfoot III will be titled "Bigfoot," and will hit radio sometime this month.
