Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford har uttalat sig om låtskrivandet inför det kommande albumet som följer upp Nostradamus från 2008.
Halford säger, ”A tremendous amount of material has already been accumulated for the new CD, with the band currently ramping things up to get back into full writing and recording mode”.
Judas Priest kommande album markerar debuten för bandets nya gitarrist Richie Faulkner som ersatte K.K. Downing 2011.
Halford säger, ”As we were proceeding on this world tour, Richie was taking this little mini-studio into his dressing room and we could hear him riffing away. It’s going to be really thrilling moment to get together in a new writing dimension, Glenn Tipton and myself and Richie, putting all of these ideas together. We’ll see what we can do over the next couple of months, look at everything, lay it all out and then start the hard work of picking out the best material.”
Halford fortsätter, ”It’ll be ready when it’s ready. I don’t think we’re going to slack off. We’re determined to do a lot of work and be just as dedicated as we’ve always been and take a lot of care and attention with all the songs. We’re not going to just bang this one out, so to speak.”
