Blaze Bayley to Record New Album with Wolfsbane
Ultimate Guitar reports:"The reunited UK rock band Wolfsbane, featuring former Iron Maiden frontman Blaze Bayley, has commenced work on material for a new studio album. Tentatively due in 2011, the LP will be followed by a tour and select festival appearances.
Formed in 1984 in Tamworth, England, Wolfsbane signed to Def American Records, and Rick Rubin produced the band's first album, "Live Fast, Die Fast", released in 1989. Wolfsbane's second release, an EP titled "All Hell's Breaking Loose Down", followed in 1990. The band's second studio album, "Down Fall The Good Guys", was released in 1991, giving Wolfsbane its only UK chart entry, with the single "Ezy" landing at No. 68.
After Def American dropped Wolfsbane, the band released a live album, "Massive Noise Injection", through the Bronze label in 1993. The group's third studio album, the self-titled "Wolfsbane", followed in 1994.
On September 9, 2007, Wolfsbane reformed for a one-off short set at the Rock of Ages festival in Tamworth. This was followed by their first UK tour in 13 years, with the band playing five dates as support for the The Wildhearts in December 2007. Their next tour came in December 2009 supporting The Quireboys on their "A Little Bit of What You Fancy 20th Anniversary Tour". "
