During a recent interview with 69 Faces Of Rock, Brian Tatler further addressed the status of Diamond Head. The guitarist, who is currently performing with Saxon, says the band is “just on hold” for now.
Tatler said the following
“It’s gonna be difficult to do a new DIAMOND HEAD album, because since joining SAXON in 2023, I’ve been focusing on that. Obviously, I had to learn the material. Then pretty much straight away we went into start work on a new album, which ended up being [SAXON’s latest album, 2024’s] ‘Hell, Fire And Damnation’. So with all the dates I’ve done and with all the amount of time that I have to put in preparation and stuff for new material with SAXON, DIAMOND HEAD’s had to have a backseat. We’ve had to put it on hold. We can’t be booking gigs, because they may very well clash with SAXON dates. And I would have to do the SAXON dates and we would have to cancel the DIAMOND HEAD gigs, if they clashed. So, I’m focusing on SAXON. I’m really enjoying it. DIAMOND HEAD is not finished. It’s just, as I say, on hold. It’s just on hiatus. And who knows? I think everybody still really, really likes doing DIAMOND HEAD. So we’ll just see what’s further on down the road, really.”
