They&#8217;re insane and so I feel so honored and blessed to be out with them and to have such a great rapport.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Momsen admitted that she&#8217;s been doing this a long time, but for many, many reasons, touring with AC\/DC has been incredibly special.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think we&#8217;ve made a lifelong connection here,&#8221; she shared.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They&#8217;re just the greatest people and they are what rock and roll is meant to be. This has been a dream come true.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>The Pretty Reckless&#8217; New Song, &#8216;For I Am Death&#8217;<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to gushing over AC\/DC and their legacy, Momsen and Chuck dove into the Pretty Reckless&#8217; brand-new song, &#8220;For I Am Death.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Songs are like their own entities and I don&#8217;t necessarily know where they always come from,&#8221; Momsen said about the creation of the new track.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sometimes you work on something for a really long time, sometimes it falls out of the sky and lands in your lap.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of where a song may come from, though, Momsen said with every line she writes, she&#8217;s always coming from a really personal perspective.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once it&#8217;s recorded and put out, the meaning of it to me \u2014 where it started and where it ends up \u2014 is ever evolving,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Even songs that I finished six months ago mean something different to me today &#8230; Our first record, I still listen to that and I can remember exactly where I was and what I was writing about at the time. But to me now, as I sing [those songs] every night on stage, the meaning has transformed into something and relates to me now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ MORE:\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/tool-maynard-james-keenan-adam-jones-back-to-the-beginning-ozzy-interview\/\">Tool&#8217;s Maynaord James Keenan + Adam Jones Reflect on Back to the Beginning, Ozzy&#8217;s Legacy + More<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Momsen said that&#8217;s the power of music and her goal will always be to write something that has those layers and depths to it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that&#8217;s the power of music in and of itself, it forces the human race to expand their minds and think past your day-to-day,&#8221; she explained.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s always something I try really hard to not necessarily intentionally put into the writing, but to make sure that I&#8217;m doing that, I&#8217;m never writing from a face value, blanket place \u2014 there&#8217;s those layers to what I&#8217;m saying.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>What Else did the Pretty Reckless&#8217; Taylor Momsen Discuss on <em>Loudwire Nights<\/em>?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>How AC\/DC and the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/tags\/rolling-stones\/\">Rolling Stones<\/a> disrupted her recording plans: &#8220;My agent called and he goes, &#8216;Hey, I&#8217;ve got some shows, some offers for this and this and this,&#8217; and I went, &#8216;I&#8217;m going to the studio and don&#8217;t call me, we&#8217;re not touring anymore.

When you lose someone, when anyone loses anyone \u2014 whether that&#8217;s a figure or someone incredibly close to you \u2014 I feel like the initial feeling is always the same. Your heart sank. Your heart sinks to your feet and you can&#8217;t breathe. You&#8217;re stunned in this physical manner &#8230; The world changed and he changed the world. He will be forever missed.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Whether or not &#8220;For I Am Death&#8221; is pointing toward more new music: &#8220;It might be&#8230;you might be onto something there. I can&#8217;t tell you. There&#8217;s so much to say and so much I&#8217;m not allowed to say. What I can say is stay tuned. This is just the beginning and the next 12 months is going to be insane. We have a lot on the horizon, a lot of different things, some of them are going to take you by surprise.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Listen to the Full Interview\u00a0in the Podcast Player Below<\/h3>\n<p><em>Taylor Momsen\u00a0joined\u00a0<\/em>Loudwire Nights<em> on Friday, Aug. 29;\u00a0the show <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/listen-live\/\">replays online here<\/a>, and you can tune in <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/listen-live\/\">live every weeknight at 7PM ET<\/a> or on the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/app\/\">Loudwire app<\/a>; you can also see if the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/category\/loudwire-nights\/\">show is available on your local radio station<\/a>\u00a0and <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/loudwire.com\/podcasts\/\">listen to interviews on-demand<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"photogallery-wrapper blog-photogallery \">\n<h2 class=\"photogallery-title\">10 Best God-Tier Songs of the 1970s<\/h2>\n<div class=\"photogallery-description\">\n<p>They put the &#8216;classic&#8217; in classic rock!
