Having a slate of incredible, up-and-coming comedians to riff on the rock experience will be a great change of pace for the weekend. The site layout is also changing dramatically in 2013 to create better event flow, to add more interactive fan activity to the festival, and to allow even more people to experience the higher caliber of talent on the second stage this year.”

LA’s Hollywood Undead have been busy lately, creating a slew of videos, releasing free downloads and — biggest of all — releasing a new album.

Their latest, Notes from the Underground, was released January 8 via A&M Octone.

We recently caught up with Hollywood Undead’s Johnny 3 Tears, aka George Ragan, who assures fans that the new disc, despite some cool changes, is very much a Hollywood Undead album.

“We like to think we’re getting better,” he said. “It’s different, with some ballad-type songs, and it steps in a different direction as well — but it’s still a Hollywood Undead record!”

The new album is out now and is available at iTunes, right here. For more about Hollywood Undead, check out their official website and Facebook page.

REVOLVER: How do you think being in Los Angeles affects your sound?

I think we are heavily influenced by the LA scene, but I don’t think it changes our sound. We have written songs about being here in LA.

What was the inspiration for the album name, Notes from the Underground?

I think it’s where we come from musically as a band. A big part of it is writing songs of places and experiences people may not want to go too. I think we as a band want to show you another side of life to us that isn’t into today’s mainstream music scene.

Speaking of names (and LA), where did the band’s name come from?

We grew up in the Hollywood, the Los Angeles area, and would see everyone go out at night, so we use to call those people “undead.” So when we came up with the name, we thought of Hollywood and would become those type of people.

Has the band’s sound evolved on this release?

Absolutely. We’re always trying to evolve, but not to the point of, “What happened?” We want to make everyone happy, but we want to make it happy for us and interested. So we experimented here and there with different writing styles that the last record didn’t have, but it’s till very Hollywood Undead.

What do the masks represent?

When we started, we didn’t want to look like every other band. We wanted that representation of a band, tearing down that wall between the people who make the music and listen to it. So we kept this unknown vibe. It makes the others more involved, so we wanted that type of feel that was progressive and connect with it.

What made you want to return to your original roots?

I think what we meant by that was it’s been stripped down and the elements of what the band is sometimes you can over produce the sounds, but having enough time you can work on the songs more, so we wanted it to be basic.

Did the band have any definitive goals they were shooting for before the recording process began for this album?

George: Of course you want to record a great record, and writing it, is like an adventure you don’t know how it will turn out but you get to challenge yourself. You can write a song about this or that and hope that people will like them or write songs that will be the best that’s the goal. So we try and make sure by the end of the day, that we couldn’t write a record as best as what we could have done with this one.

Are you using any new instrumentation you’ve never used in the recording process before?

We use about every instrument there is, unless I start playing the flute or something. Using different programming, broaden the horizons a bit but didn’t get too crazy.

Did you feel any pressure to follow it up?

We put pressure on ourselves of course, but once in the studio we kept to ourselves. So when a lot of people care on what’s going on and close that door doing it as a band, because once the outside focus enters there’s too much going on. We keep those away and are delivering a record we can and how we want it to be, sticking to the honest aspect of the music.

What are your expectations for the CD?

Haha I’d expect to sell a zillion records but who knows. We would like the record to do well so we can make ourselves and the fans happy expanding on that. That’s the goal is to keep the fans new and old happy along the way. I don’t expect anything really it can be a massive success or a failure so it’s left for the others to decide.

What are the plans for you guys for 2013?

A whole lot of touring, writing, doing what we gota do playing places we’ve never been so just keep on going in that direction.

Anything else you want to add for your fans?

Go pick up the album and see us on tour and hopefully you will like the record!

Rap-rockers Hollywood Undead will release their highly anticipated third album, Notes from the Underground, in January, 2013. In anticipation, the band is premiering the lead single from the record, “We Are,” right here right now. Check it out below and let us know what you think in the comments.

REVOLVER Why did you decide to do a remix album now?
BEN BRUCE It’s funny, ’cause it happened three or four years ago or something. When we recorded Stand Up and Scream, which is our first album, obviously there was a lot of synthesizers and dance and trance and stuff incorporated within that album. And back then we were really, really into sort of dance music and dubstep and all that stuff and we thought, Oh, wouldn’t it be cool if we could do this whole album as sort of a dubstep, dance, trance, sort of mix kind of thing. And it just never ended up happening.

Why do you think more hard-rock and metal bands are incorporating electronic music into what they do?
Metal has a really driving sound. It’s really energetic, and if you listen to a lot of dubstep and stuff it’s got the same feel. It’s around a similar tempo, it’s just driven. In many ways, it’s just as heavy as a metal song.

Was it important for you to keep that original heaviness from the songs?
Originally, we didn’t think of doing that, but after everyone started releasing these remix albums we thought, We need to do something to stand out. And just the way it came about it is just Stand up and Scream was mainly a guitar album—guitars, vocals, drums—with a little bit of synth mixed in it. So we thought, What happens if we literally flip-flopped that, have a synth-driven album, with heavy guitars and drums and stuff playing a smaller role, but still there keeping the heavy vibe that the original album’s had.

Were you nervous about how your fans would react?
Oh, definitely. I was like This is gonna go one of two ways: It’s gonna completely flop or it’s gonna do really well, so. It seems to be doing well, it was No. 1 on the iTunes electronic chart for ages, I don’t know if it still is, but I know it was there for at least a week, which is pretty cool.

Did you know many of the producers before choosing them?
I knew a few of them. Like, we knew Big Chocolate, and we knew some of the Born of Osiris guys, who did some of the remixes. And we knew Borgore, so it was just DJs that we like. And then our record label suggested a bunch of other DJs and stuff, so we figured we’d take their word for it and see if they worked out.

Did you learn a  lot working on this album that you didn’t know before?
No, it’s beyond me. I still don’t understand all that shit. People can say it’s just pushing buttons and stuff but I think it’s a lot more than that. It’s quite complicated. It’s quite difficult. There’s a lot of counter melodies and stuff that people don’t really notice that are there that goes into it. It’s kind of like rewriting a song, almost. It’s crazy.

Do you see yourself incorporating electronic elements into future albums?
Yeah, having done this, it’s sort of opened our eyes into doing an electronic style album in a different way. Before we used to go into the studio with Joey and do them in the studio, but I think for this next album we’re gonna try and incorporate some of these DJs into making our electronic sounds throughout the album, just because they’re better at it than we are, obviously.

How’s the Buried Alive Tour with Avenged Sevenfold going so far?
It’s going really, really well. A lot better than expected ’cause before we were a bit apprehensive and a bit nervous, just because Avenged Sevenfold is more of a radio rock band. I didn’t know how well we would go with their crowd. But it’s been really, really good.

You also recently opened up for Guns N’ Roses. What was that like?
That was the most terrifying thing in my life. I never get nervous before I play, but I was shitting myself before this show. There was probably about 15,000 people there, something like that. And half of them were like, What the fuck are these kids doing onstage? Why are they screaming down the mic at us and telling us to mosh and stuff? But then the other half were really open to it  and really cool. So it was kind of a 50/50 thing. But even if it was 100 percent of the crowd that hated us, at the end of the day I would have still enjoyed it and taken away nothing but good things, because, Guns N’ Roses, man—they’re one of my favorite bands. How many people get to say, especially a band in our sort of genre and scene, how many bands get to say, “Yeah, we opened for Guns N’ Roses”? It’s just awesome.

What was the worst thing to come of your nervousness?
Except for two seconds before we had to go on stage, when Cam was puking in a garbage can.

Lastly, did you enjoy being on The Warrior Show, it looked intense?
Ah, yeah. It was, it was fucking horrible. He asked us to do, like, 500 squats or something with these chains round our neck. And  he wasn’t really paying attention, because some people were doing different things, and some of those doing the squats were cheating. He was like, “What are you on” And they were like, “480.” And he was like, “OK, 20 more.”  And I was honest, ’cause I wasn’t thinking, I was like, “I’m on 200.” And he was like, “OK, go.” And he watched me do the rest of them. And I was like, Ah, fuck. I could barely walk the next day, it sucked.

“We appreciate our fans so much and felt terrible that we had to miss the Uproar show in October,” Shadows says. ”We want to make it up to those in the Bay Area by adding this free show to our ‘Buried Alive’ tour and making sure that anyone who was supposed to see us that night in Northern California will get the best seats in the house.”
