The dreaded sophomore album. How does a band like Lazarus A.D. approach what some see as a make-or-break album in a band's career? How do they handle song writing after the endless (and inevitable) comparisons to Testament, Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, etc.? "You focus on writing better songs, plain and simple. We fully understood the "sophomore slump" notion, and tossed it to the side. We believe that bands that have achieved success and continue to maintain it naturally evolve their sound while keeping a strong core".
