According to www.danzig-verotik.com, DANZIG's new CD, Live On The Black Hand Side, features two hours of live Danzig material from '92, '94 and 2000. This, the first full Danzig Live album, is tentatively scheduled for release in April. Virtually every favorite is represented on the CD, including a live version of the song from the X-Files TV soundtrack, 'Deep'. A tour will follow the release of the record. Meanwhile the band are still in the studio finishing up the final touches on Danzig 7. The working title for this album is Kiss The Skull. Tracks to appear on the new album include, 'Black Mass', 'Kiss The Skull', 'Dead Inside', 'God Of Light', 'Angel Blake', 'Malefical', 'Wicked Pussycat', 'Halo Goddess Bone' and 'The Coldest Sun'. The new album will be released in late Summer.

HALFORD's Live Insurrection album has the following confirmed tracklisting: CD1 - 'Resurrection', 'Made In Hell', 'Into The Pit', 'Nailed To The Gun', 'Light Comes Out Of Black', 'Stained Class', 'Jawbreaker', 'Running Wild', 'Slow Down', 'The One You Love To Hate' (featuring Bruce Dickinson), 'Life In Black', 'Hell's Last Survivor', 'Sad Wings', 'Saviour' and 'Silent Screams'. CD2 - 'Cyberworld', 'The Hellion', 'Electric Eye', 'Riding On The Wind', 'Genocide', 1st Encore: 'Beyond The Realms Of Death', 'Metal Gods', 2nd Encore: 'Breaking The Law', 'Blackout' featuring Rudolf Schenker (bonus track for Japan) and 'Tyrant'. Studio tracks: 'Screaming In The Dark', 'Heart Of A Lion' and 'Prisoner Of Your Eyes'. Rob recently summarized the mammoth package for BW&BK and HardRadio: "I guess it's just the fact that this band, the Halford band, has an extraordinary opportunity to go out and play a vast cross section of catalog that I've recorded over the years. So we can step from place to place. One minute we're in our own world, and then the other minute we're into the world of Priest, and then the world of Fight, and at one point we step into the world of Scorpions because we do a cover of Blackout that will only be on the Japanese release. So this double live CD is quite unique in that respect because the material is coming from many, many directions. And the bonus of course is the one new studio track which leads you into the next Halford studio CD. And as well you get the rare Priest songs."

JUDAS PRIEST has announced the title of their new album, due this Summer. It will be called Demolition. As well, the band have announced the Spanish leg of their European tour. The dates are: July 4 - Anoeta, San Sebastian, 5 - La Cubierta, Madrid, 6 - Alcazeres, Murcia, 7 - San Felipe Neri, Cadiz, 9 - Feria De Muestras, Valladolid and 10 - Vall D'Hebron, Barcelona.
