Seven years have elapsed since Bruce Dickinson’s last fully-fledged solo release, The Chemical Wedding, during which time he made a hugely successful return to Iron Maiden, recording two highly acclaimed albums and touring the globe several times. Never one to rest on his laurels, May 24th finds Dickinson releasing Tyranny Of Souls, his 6th solo album.

This new album sees him renewing a fruitful collaboration with guitarist- producer-writer Roy Z, of the Latin-based rock group, Tribe Of Gypsies. Z has worked with Bruce since 1994’s Balls To Picasso album, as well as producing the likes of Helloween, Downset, Halford and the recent Judas Priest reunion album, Angel Of Retribution.

A DJ, broadcaster and qualified airline pilot, Bruce Dickinson is a man for all seasons whose punishing schedule would terrify a less driven soul. Following the end of the last Maiden tour, Bruce saw an opportunity to work alongside Roy again. "With Maiden, once the band has finished up on the tours, we all tend to go our separate ways and do our own thing for a while until it’s time to saddle up again for the next album. I knew I could seize the chance to work with Roy in between his work on the new Priest album. We both work quickly together which I like and the recording is very organic so it came together quite easily. I’m very proud of it.
