Super group Chickenfoot is taking the rock world by storm!  Their highly anticipated sophomore album will soon be hitting stores and a massive tour to follow.  For those of you unaware, Chickenfoot consists of:


Sammy Hagar – lead vocals, rhythm guitar

Due to the Red Hot Chili Peppers touring schedule and tenth album release, drummer Chad Smith has stepped down from Chickenfoot temporarily, replaced by Kenny Aronoff.  Chad had the chance to shed some light on his decision to continue his duties with RHCP:


MusicRadar.com:
"What about Chickenfoot? After you do the Chili Peppers, are you going to do another record?"


Smith:
"Absolutely! We’re having so much fun and it’s gone so well – there’s no reason not to continue with Chickenfoot. That’s something I want to make very clear: Chickenfoot isn’t a one-off thing for any of us. We’re a band. I would imagine during my time with the Peppers that Joe will probably do another solo record, and maybe Sammy and Mike will do something on their own. But as soon as I’m done with the Chili Peppers, I’m diving right back into Chickenfoot. We’re going to outdo this record, too. That’s the plan and I’m sticking to it."


As for new material, Chickenfoot have just released their first music video from the latest release:
