Former Iron Maiden Singer Pondering Concept Album

(Classic Rock) Blaze Bayley says he hopes his next solo effort is likely to be concept album. The Wolfsbane and former Iron Maiden frontman is working on songs for the follow-up to 2012's The King Of Metal - but he hopes it will outshine that album and match the level of what he sees as his three best solo efforts.

And the singer won't rush it, insisting he will give it time to evolve. Bayley tells Angel: "I'm working on it bit by bit. I absolutely don't wanna rush it. I want it to evolve the same way that Silicon Messiah did and Blood & Belief did and The Man Who Would Not Die.

"Those albums all were really solid, because they evolved. We wrote things, we went back, we polished, we decided what to leave off and what to make the most of. So the next one, I've worked it out so I could do it when I want. It can come out next year, or it can come out in 2016.

"I've got a few ideas for it. It's probably gonna be a concept album. And we'll see how it goes, really. The most important thing is that it must have some absolutely standout songs." Read more here.
