In November 2008, Larkin announced that the band would be reforming and recording a new album. The following summer, the band toured as support to Mötley Crüe ‘s Crüe Fest 2 tour and released a non-album single, ” Whiskey Hangover “. After the tour, Godsmack started production for their new album. The album, titled The Oracle was released on May 4 , 2010. Arriving to popular reception, The Oracle was Godsmack’s third straight full-length studio album to debut at No. 1 with 117,000 sold in the first week of release. Erna had this to say about the early sound album, “It’s gonna be really heavy. I mean, it’s very aggressive. I’m not really sure; it’s very premature right now. Right now we just finished one track for the Crüe Fest this Summer. But as far as the whole record goes, I think it’s going to be a lot more in your face. I don’t think there’s going to be any ‘Voodoo’s or ‘Serenity’s on this one. We decided to go balls out!”.
