Snider comments: “‘Tomorrow’s No Concern’ is the perfect first single off of my new album, ‘For The Love Of Metal’. Lyrically, it’s about me living for today, not in the past. So many people waste their lives away remembering the ‘glory days.’ While I am proud of all that I’ve done, I’m more interested and excited about what is happening now. In the song, I urge the listener to do the same; live in the moment and don’t let the past — good, bad or indifferent — or what might or might not happen in the future ever slow you down!”

Speaking to Chris Annunziata of the New Jersey radio station 90.3 WMSC-FM, Snider stated about “For The Love Of Metal”: “This is a really exciting album I did not expect to make, especially at this point in my life. I was doing Jamey Jasta‘s podcast, and he challenged me to make a contemporary rock record. And I was, like, ‘Who’s producing?’ He said, ‘I am.’ And so we went in the studio [with] no record deal, and people started flocking [to appear on the LP]. It just amazed me, the enthusiasm and excitement that these younger musicians — younger than me, at least — had for working with Dee Snider and being a part of this project.”

Dee went on to say that “the album turned out phenomenal,” so much so that “we had a bidding war from all the major metal labels,” he said. “As Jamey would say, it is hard. It harkens back to my earliest work with TWISTED SISTER, but it’s very contemporary sounding with my voice. And people are astounded, actually, that I still have a very strong, very powerful, and as Jamey says, an important, iconic rock voice. So I’m very excited about this album.”

Jasta previously described the LP as a “full-on metal album,” adding that “people are gonna lose their minds when they hear this.” He also called Dee “one of the best vocalists of our time” whose “voice is up there with Ozzy [Osbourne], [Ronnie James] Dio, [Bruce] Dickinson and [Rob] Halford to me. “And it’s as powerful as ever!” he said.

“Although this album will be very heavy, the songs are anthemic and will fit well in his solo set with ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’, ‘I Wanna Rock’, ‘Burn In Hell’, ‘We Are The Ones’, ‘So What’ and others,” Jamey promised.

Snider‘s last solo album, “We Are The Ones”, was released in October 2016 via Red River Records. Produced by Damon Ranger, the disc was described by Dee as “an album that is think part FOO FIGHTERS, part IMAGINE DRAGONS, part THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS.”

TWISTED SISTER called it quits in 2016 after completing a farewell 40th-anniversary tour.
