LOS ANGELES, Oct. 19 (UPI) -- U.S. singer Kelly Clarkson says her new album reflects her more fast-paced life since winning "American Idol" and the release of her debut album "Thankful."
"It's rock & roll, baby," she told RollingStone.com. "It's pop as well, obviously. I'm not Metallica -- but it is more rock, and it's a little deeper. It's very rock and it's very cool."
Producers and writers for Clarkson's sophomore effort includes Clif Magness and Rhett Lawrence, who also worked on Clarkson's first album.
"We're still picking tracks right now," said Clarkson, who won "American Idol's" first season. "We've got so many songs, we're just picking our favorites."
However, Clarkson, who, earlier this year, toured with "American Idol" second season runner up Clay Aiken, says she is eager to return to touring after the album is released Nov. 30.
"I'll be touring right after the album comes out," she said. "I think people know that when I perform live, I usually win the audience over."
