  • Iron Maiden frontman, airline pilot, fencer, author, and all round metal legend Bruce Dickinson came into the Planet Rock studios to chat to Paul Anthony about his new solo album The Mandrake Project.
    As well as how he came up with the name, Bruce also discussed being inspired by Black Sabbath's album art, choosing his band, Roy Z's decision to sit out the tour, his insanely popular in-store appearances, choosing his setlist, and revisiting his old albums Skunkworks, The Chemical Wedding, Accident of Birth and more...

      But never did understand why this album gets slated.

If he was going to record a live album from the tour then I would have a lot of suggestions as to what I would want to be on the live album, however If Roy Z isn't going to play on it the whole thing is moot. He shouldn't record a live album without Roy Z.

    Roy Z. never plays live. He's a great studio musician. He has never proven himself as a live musician and probably doesn't have the will to do so. There's a lot one can do in a studio as a musician that is far harder to do on stage. Roy Z. knows that better than we do. Thus he is "too busy" to tour and always will be.
