The band posted an update on their Facebook page on Monday, breaking the news about the delay. The update said, "Album is turning out amazing but we have missed the deadline for this year. Sorry no SixxAM for Xmas but it's looking good for early next year. New song 'Stars' is one of our favorites at the moment."

Nikki Sixx previously commented on the effort in a Facebook posting this summer. He wrote, "I am so proud of this album from the ground up. These songs are very unique. James [Michael], DJ [Ashba] and myself feel we have topped ourselves, but in the end, [the fans] will be the ones who make that decision.
