singlewith "Life Is Beautiful." Two more songs also fared well on the modern rock charts, prompting Nikki Sixx to turn the band -- originally
conceivedas a one-off recording project -- into a full-fledged touring group. Sixx: A.M. hit the road in 2008 and eventually returned to the
recordingstudio, where they began working on material for a sophomore release in April 2009. As it turned out, the second album (like its
predecessor)was a companion soundtrack to Sixx's second book, This Is Gonna Hurt, which combined photographs with self-penned passages
about themusician's career. Sharing the same title as its source material, This Is Gonna Hurt debuted at number ten on the Billboard 200. « hide |
