Bruce Springsteen New Album 2014: ‘Waitin’ On A Sunny Day’ Singer Crafting New Album, Rage Against The Machine Guitarist Tom Morello Involved

Bruce Springsteen, in the midst of a European tour, spoke to Rolling Stone before the E Street Band's concert in Milan, Italy on June 3^rd and revealed that he is crafting a new album.

"I have stuff I'm working on that I'm very happy about," Springsteen said. "I hate to say, because I hate to be wrong. But I have a lot of material. I still feel like I'm in the middle of the well."

The Boss did not give any details about the new album or the songs on it and only said "it's ongoing."

"A week or two later, after stopping, I'm in the studio working, making a demo. You stop the performing for awhile, because this level of intensity...You need a break from it.

"But this has been a great, tremendously rewarding period of our time together," Springsteen said. "This has been the best ten, twelve years we've ever had."

Springsteen's newest record would be his first album since he released Wrecking Ball in 2012. The Boss has already created some new songs earlier this year on the Australian leg of his tour. Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello filled in for regular E Street Band guitarist Steve Van Zandt during the recordings.

The band entered a studio in Sydney during its days off on the tour, which Springsteen said they had never done in the past.

"We've never had a recording session during a tour in our lives," Springsteen said. "We did a couple of things that I wanted to put down. So that was very exciting. And being with Tommy was exciting. The band - Steven, Nils, all those guys - continues to be a source of inspiration for me."

Springsteen has released six albums since 2002: The Rising (2002), Devils & Dust (2005), We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions (2006), Magic (2007), Working on a Dream (2009), and Wrecking Ball (2012). That heavy workload falls in line with what Springsteen has wanted to accomplish in recent years.

"I always used to say, in the past decades, that I wanted to make more records - and I've done that," Springsteen said. "I struggled through the Nineties. We (The E Street Band) weren't playing together and I didn't know how we sounded on record. Brendan O'Brien (who produced The Rising, Magic and Working on a Dream) gave us that gift. It gave us a rebirth and inspired me, I believe, to write more songs. Of course, it was a decade with an awful lot going on in the United States and elsewhere."
