GLENN HUGHES On BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION's Afterglow - "This May Be The Last Album"
September 4, 2012, 12 years ago
During a recent interview with ABC News Radio, Glenn Hughes (DEEP PURPLE, BLACK SABBATH, TRAPEZE) reveals that the upcoming BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION album Afterglow (details here) may be their last. "This may be the (band's) last album," he declared. "I hate to break it to you, but it just may be, because I need to be in a band that tours on a regular basis."
Hughes went on to explain that due to guitarist Joe Bonamassa's own heavy solo touring commitments, Black Country Communion has no solid plans to hit the road in support of Afterglow.
Earlier this year, Hughes participated in the abbreviated ROCK N ROLL ALLSTARS tour of South America, and he's now formed a new group called KINGS OF CHAOS with several of the other famous musicians who took part in the trek including DEF LEPPARD's Joe Elliott, founding GUNS N' ROSES bassist Duff McKagan, ex-GN'R drummer Matt Sorum and BILLY IDOL guitarist Steve Stevens.
Kings of Chaos will "tour pockets of the world -- the exotics, if you will, and the tropics and even America," he says. "We're gonna do a series of EPs. On those EPs there will be three covers and one original song. And…the lineups with the Kings of Chaos, vocally, will change. The core band will be the same. So, it's gonna be always moving and changing."
Kings Of Chaos make their recording debut on the forthcoming Deep Purple tribute album Re-Machined, which will be released on September 25.
