In The Kitchen With Former IRON MAIDEN Singer BLAZE BAYLEY (Video)

On the 87th episode of “Brutally Delicious”, the world’s most metal cooking show, your favorite host Bruce Moore is joined remotely by British heavy metal vocalist Blaze Bayley (IRON MAIDEN, WOLFSBANE). Watch the clip below and find out what Blaze has been up to, and learn how to cook some tasty fish finger curry.

The 51-year-old Bayley, who was born in Birmingham, was the original frontman in WOLFSBANE, but left in 1994 to join MAIDEN, with whom he recorded two studio albums — 1995’s “The X Factor” 1998’s and “Virtual XI” — before Bruce Dickinson returned to the group.

Bayley released a career-spanning double-disc collection, “Soundtracks Of My Life”, on October 31, 2013.

The singer’s latest studio album, “The King Of Metal”, was released in March 2012. The CD was recorded at Fear Studio in Ravenna, Italy.

Asked about the progress of the songwriting sessions for his next studio album, Blaze told Angel last November: “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’ [2000] did and ‘Blood & Belief’ [2004] did and ‘The Man Who Would Not Die’ [2008]. Those albums all were really solid, because they evolved. We wrote things, we went back, we polished, we tried… 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 [in 2015], or it can come out in 2016.”

He continued: “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. I’ve kind of set myself the goal of I wanna write at least equal to the best songs I’ve ever written and hopefully stuff that will really, really come to life… I want something that will live on, really. ‘Cause it seems to me that ‘Silicon Messiah’ has got a life and lived and breathed more than I ever thought it would. I was just making an album at the time. [I was trying] to get an album out after IRON MAIDEN, so I would still have a career.”
