<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Well, yeah, I could say that we’ve been in the studio doing something,” Fraser said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“What’s come of that I can’t discuss yet.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With Fraser being the sound engineer for the band since 2000, he explained on the podcast why he’s been with the band for so long.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“They found a lot of guys they work with are always trying to change [their sound],” Fraser explained.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Lucky for me, I was a huge AC/DC fan, so I kind of knew what it is, and what it should be. I think that sort of helped. They keep coming back to me.”</span></p>
