GlamMetal.com has issued an interview with DORO leader Doro Pesch, conducted by Gus Griesinger. The following is an excerpt:

Q: In one of the past interviews you did with one of our writers Dubay, you said you had no hobbies and music was your true passion. Being a workaholic that you say you are, Have you started working on your next studio CD?

A: (laughs) "Yes. Yes."

Q: How is it going?

A: "It's in the very early stages. When we do the tours and stuff, I like to concentrate only on one thing. When I get some ideas, I like to put on my little tape recorder. We wrote a couple songs. It's still in the beginning. Probably won't come out till next year. We will be going in the same direction as Warrior Soul. Like nice anthems, heavy songs, whatever feels good."

Q: What's the reason you're not playing the Wacken Festival this year?

A: "We already played there five times."

Q: But it's in Germany, and what's Wacken without Doro?

A: We might play there on the anniversary, two years from now. Five times there is already alot. We really wanted to do the States. We are doing a couple summer festivals. It's important for people not to say 'oh, not her again!' (Laughs) Next year we are having our 25th anniversary. We really want to make it a big event. We want to do it in some special places. We want to do one in Germany, one in New York, one in Spain, one in Russia. Then in two years, maybe Wacken again. It's still my favorite Festival!"
