Strung Out have posted an update on their plans for 2009. Along with the release of their forthcoming b-sides collection, Prototypes and Painkillers on February 17, 2009, the band is apparently planning to hit the studio:
We've been practicing quite a bit lately and writing a bunch of new songs. We hope to be in the studio early 2009 if all falls into place. Its been a big group collaboration so, you can expect another Strung Out variety packed album.

We have a few shows coming up so we hope you can make it if your in the area. The shows are of course all posted on our myspace page and our website. A second LA House Of Blues show has been added on December 28th and its all ages show. We're actually not quite sure why the December 27th show is a 18+ show but, that's the case. We are excited to be playing with our friends Authority Zero next week, as well The Vandals in February.

The band released Blackhawks Over Los Angeles in 2007.
