Usually it's the press that says stuff like that. Typically it's Jon and Richie saying it's a big rock album, but I rarely hear back to the roots apart from "It's the most fun we've had in the studio since Slippery". The last time I heard chink in the armor from Jon was HAND and he wasn't far off so I'm hoping he's right.

Where did he say those phrases in regards to the new album?

He didn't

He did. http://www.youthhealthmag.com/articl...album-2016.htm is one of the articles that used soundbites from, I think, the Kuala Lampur press conference. The press is the one running with the back to the roots thing but Jon insinuated it by saying they went back to the first studio and tracked the songs together. He never used chinks in the armor this time around, my apologies, but did use chip on the shoulder.

"Those Phrases" Captain Jovi "Those Phrases" we all know at this point it's a back to roots / studio / and everything else... Becky was asking when did he say and mainly referring to "chink on the armor" so let me repeat.... HE DIDNT

Can you guys be anymore picky?!?!

Sweetmiserys intention was to show that basically pretty much the same phrases are repeated over and over again when Jon talks about upcoming albums. That's true, even if ONE out of four or five wasn't mentioned here.

I wasn't being picky. I was just asking for a source. I remembered the "back to the roots" thing because they literally were back in the same studio from the first album, but I didn't remember any of the other phrases being used. Hey, my memory isn't what it used to be. Just wanted some clarification.

Uh no, she had a list of phrases and asked when he said them. Don't put words in her mouth and said she mainly referred to the one specific one he didn't say. He's most certainly insinuated going back to his roots this time and he hasn't mentioned anything about tracking together during previous album cycles. I completely agree, he did NOT say anything about chink in the armour.

bonjovi90 not trying to be picky, I just disagree with Sweetmisery, those aren't phrases he's used for past releases while the press has been all over SOME (happy RD?) of them.

Yes! Thank You!

I think many fans make misunderstood with two things:
Since Crush Jon say on almost every album (without) that it's back to rock or rnroll, heavy sound ecc.

With this album Jon said something DIFFERENT. It's back to the roots IN STYLE of makeing record.

For example. New song - We Don't Run doesn't sound like Livin or Bad Name at all but it was done THE SAME WAY.
One studio (first studio - not in Jons house), all of them in one room, all pf them play demo ecc.
It's the way of makeing record how they did since 2000. It might finally sound like Foo Fighters, fall out boy, Rammstein... but it will be back to roots in way of make it anyway.
