Kentucky-based rockers HYDROGYN - now featuring ex-MEGADETH members Jeff Young (guitars) and James Lomenzo (bass) - as part of the new line-up, have issued their sixth video blog discussing their new album, Judgement. The clip features footage of vocalist Julie Westlake's photo shoot for the album. Check out the new video footage below.

An excerpt from BW&BK; scribe Carl Begai's recent interview with guitarists Jeff Westlake and Jeff Young is available below:

Dispelling any thoughts that Julie is mere eye candy with no substance, Westlake reveals she is more metal that people give her credit for.

Westlake: “With Jeff coming in I decided we had to do a Best Of from the early years of Hydrogyn (entitled Phase 1) to show people that the first chapter is over and there’s something new coming. Julie suggested we put another song on the album, so I asked her which song she had in mind and she said ‘Assault Attack’ from the MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP. I was like, ‘What?!’ (laughs).”

Young: “Michael Schenker is God for me. Jeff’s guitar tracks on the cover of ‘Assault Attack’, the tones are better than Schenker’s (laughs). He used a little Fender frontman reverb, which is about 15 watts, no bigger than a breadbox.”

Westlake: “The vocals on ‘Assault Attack’ are literally just a scratch vocal. Julie sat with a live hand-held mic in front of the speakers and demoed the thing right there in front of the computer. All I wanted was to get the vibe from her for when we recorded it, but it came out so well that we kept it.”
