Tyketto's brand new single "Faithless" is now available for purchase digitally via iTunes and Amazon. "Faithless" will appear on Tyketto's first new album in 18 years, 'Dig In Deep', due for release on April 20th in Europe and April 24th in North America. 'Dig In Deep' features the original Tyketto line-up of Danny Vaughn (lead vocals), Brooke St. James (lead guitar/backing vocals), Jimi Kennedy (bass/backing vocals) and Michael Clayton (drums/backing vocals). With recent appearances at Sweden Rock, Download, Firefest, Hard Rock Hell and Hard in Rio, the band realized they still had a huge fan base worldwide and the timing was perfect for a new album.
"The thing with us is I think we walk both lines, because obviously it's many years later, so our musicianship is different and the music we've been exposed to has changed", continued the singer. "But we are not going to try and make Tyketto sound like ... I can't think who ... but I think it will sound like us. It will have some more maturity to it. I think there are going to be some differences, but I'm not going to change the way I sing. My harmony structures will be similar and my belief in what makes a big chorus is still there. What I do know is that this album is going to be pretty damn aggressive -- not in a thrash metal sense. Some of the songs are making me think of Def Leppard. There is a ballad, but I don't know if there will be more than one. I think it's going to be a very fast-paced and aggressive record. Now we are starting to throw in the elements that will make it more like what people know of Tyketto -- the acoustic guitar will blend in at certain points. I think it will be exactly what it is, people will hear it and go 'yes, that is Tyketto' and 'yes, that is not old Tyketto, that is Tyketto 2011'."
