Metal Meltdown has issued a new interview with FIREWIND leader/guitarist Gus G. (OZZY OSBOURNE), conducted recently in Cleveland.
During the interview, Gus reveals that Firewind plan to release a live album this summer, featuring material recorded on last year's tour.
Discussing a forthcoming solo album, Gus states: "Nothing's set in stone. I haven't even signed with a label. I've been writing with a couple really great singers. I've written lots of material. I'm not sure what's going to end up there right now . I'm still putting it together, to be honest. I wouldn't reveal too much information. Let me put it this way: if Firewind would be closer to Deep Purple, this project is going to be closer to Led Zeppelin, if you know what I mean. So it's going to be a bit more of a straightforward rock 'n roll kind of thing. I'm planning to have some instrumentals on there as well. I think it would be cool for the guitar fans, probably people would expect that from me. There's going to be vocal songs on there as well with some guest singers."

Metal Meltdown with Dr. Metal can be heard every Friday from 5 - 7 PM, Eastern on WRUW-FM 91.1 Cleveland, with a live stream and archives at wruw.org.
