In fact, it would be a logical assumption that Billy Milano and co. are putting their unabashed and unedited thoughts and feelings out there for all to see and hear with 'Busted, Broke, and American.' The album will be released July 7th via Megaforce Records.

 

"I had taken off time with M.O.D. in 2009," Milano recalls. "We had done 100 shows for 2007's 'Red, White & Screwed.' I needed a break. My dog Buster, an American bulldog, got sick with cancer and I started to play guitar again while staying home with him. I started jamming again, anticipating something quick, but it wasn't."

 

"I just started playing guitar, while sitting there, looking at him, giving him medicine," he says. "I wanted to run and play with my dog, and I couldn't. The only way to be with him was to sit there and play guitar. I had no goal to do a record. I just wrote all the material."

 

While Milano may be older and wiser these days, he's not any softer. He's admittedly still cynical and music remains something he loves doing and he still operates off the zero fucks given principle. "I don't give a fuck, but I like playing," he reasons. "I like making records. It's like cooking - it's an extension of me."
