Godsmack Taking 2013 Off

"We're going to take some time away now because we just ran for the last two years," Erna told Artist Direct. "It's time for us to take a break and get away from the markets for a little bit so we don't overplay them. We're taking 2013 off."

As for a return to work, he says, "Maybe towards the end of the year or early 2014, we may start getting into the studio and writing. Now, we're going to lay low."
