Bruce Dickinson On His New Solo Album: “We Did 16 Tracks In 21 Days, All 100 Percent Live”
During a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson commented on his next solo album. The frontman said the following while discussing various injuries:
“I got two metal hips, I got a busted Achilles I had stitched back together five years ago, various contusions and lumps and bumps. But I’m still running around like a lunatic, and the voice is doing great. I just finished a solo record: We did 16 tracks in 21 days, all 100 percent live. It’s like the anti-A.I. generation.”

Type O Negative’s Johnny Kelly Unearths Unreleased Song From The “October Rust” Sessions
Type O Negative’s Johnny Kelly has unearthed an unreleased song from the “October Rust” sessions. He says it didn’t make the album, but “to release it as a bonus track on something, it’s worth it.”
Kelly told Loaded Radio the following:
“I dug up a whole bunch of cassettes recently and I found a lot of stuff — demos. I actually found a song that we never used.”
He went on to discuss the origin of the cassettes:
“I would go to [keyboardist] Josh [Silver]’s house when we were working on the records. I would always go home — say, after the day, we were working on a song. This was back when cassettes [laughs] were being used. CDs really weren’t standard yet as far as in the studio for refs and stuff like that. So I have a bunch of ref[erence] cassettes from demos that we did and stuff. And then I was just listening to them, and I came across the song. Part of it wound up getting cannibalized. Parts of the song wound up on other songs, on ‘Life Is Killing Me’ and stuff like that. But it’s a complete song.”
He also discussed the possibility of a release:
“At the time, the song wasn’t strong enough to be on ‘October Rust’. And if we were releasing ‘October Rust’ today, it still wouldn’t make the record… But 30 years later, to release it as a bonus track on something, it’s worth it — it’s worth it for that. Now, if we can get a good transfer from a cassette and actually get a good mastering out of it and make it sound good…
This year is the 30th anniversary of ‘October Rust’, but I don’t know if it’s good policy to have the live record coming out this year and a box set for ‘October Rust’. Maybe. I don’t know. We’ll have to see. But right now I’m just going through the cassettes and seeing what I have.”

“I need more cinematic metal in my life! ‘The Singularity: Ekleipsis’ builds upon the musical and narrative themes of my 2024 album ‘The Singularity’, and this time around it rocks even harder. My brother, vocalist/producer Brendan McCreary, and I were once again thrilled to partner with a number of inspiring artists for this record, each of whom brought their unique musical personalities and perspectives to the project.
‘Black Box’, our debut single, was written in collaboration with and features Joe Duplantier, of the iconic band Gojira. It blends my cinematic background with Joe’s distinctive vocals, harmonized beautifully by the legendary women’s choir the Mystery Of The Bulgarian Voices. Equally inspired by ’90s alternative bands, Eastern European folk music, symphonic film scores, and progressive metal, ‘Black Box’ encapsulates the epic scope of ‘Ekleipsis’ while just cracking open the door to the rest of the album.”

Autopsy To Record New Album This Year
During an appearance on Laughing Monkey With Shawn Ratches, Autopsy drummer/vocalist Chris Reifert offered an update on the band’s next album. According to him, the group are planning to record the effort later this year.
Reifert said the following:
“As of now, the big plan is just to make the new album before the year’s over and get it kicked out the door next year. And it should be good timing in that regard. So that’s what we’re shooting for.”
He also discussed the musical direction:
“As long as long as it sounds like something AUTOPSY should be doing, that’s what we’re shooting for. We never wanted to make ‘Severed Survival Part Two’ or try and recreate something that we’ve already done, ’cause we already did it. But at the same time, you wanna sound like yourself, and we’re not trying to all of a sudden sound like — I always pick on this band unfairly, but we’re not gonna all of a sudden start trying to sound like DREAM THEATER or something. I’m sorry, DREAM THEATER. I don’t know why I always use you for a reference of what we’re not gonna do. My apologies… Yeah, we just wanna sound like what we should sound like. And hopefully people will agree with that. And if not, we can’t please everyone… [You wanna do something that sounds] just [fresh] enough to where you’re not imitating something you already did, but not too outside of the bubble… Some bands, you do want them to repeat themselves. Like, when MOTÖRHEAD was around, every time you’d get a new MOTÖRHEAD album, and I would get the new ones, I always was happy it was just like the records before, but in the best way. You don’t want ’em to fuck with it.”
