Whitney Pastorek of Entertainment Weekly caught up with GODSMACK frontman Sully Erna for a Q&A, where he was asked about the "sinister" way he sings. "You know, I still don't consider myself a singer," he said. "I just scream really loud and try to keep it in key. I take a lot of advice from friends like Lisa Guyer, who sang on 'Hollow' [a ballad off GODSMACK's new album, 'IV']. She's the best female blues vocalist I've ever heard in my life. She's 5 feet tall, and she has the strength of an Aretha Franklin in the range of a Whitney Houston. I listen to people like that and I try to incorporate it a little bit into GODSMACK. So we have room to expand. We don't ever want to feel like we have a ceiling over our heads."

When asked which band GODSMACK is going to be touring with when it's time to hit the road in the U.S. this fall, Erna said, "We're still working on some stuff, and it wouldn't be right to just say it if it hasn't happened yet. But what I can tell you is it's gonna be really killer. Come September, we're gonna start slamming the States. And we did that on purpose as well, because you know how it is when you see one of your favorite bands and they're playing the new record and you're like, ''Pfft, whatever! Fucking play 'Master of Puppets'!' [Laughs] I got tired of putting out a record and you're literally on the road weeks later. It's like, they don't know the shit yet, and they're not gonna enjoy it. I don't care how good the song is."
