BW&BK; has received the following press release:

Los Angeles traditional metal heroes, WHITE WIZZARD are nearly at the end of the sessions for the full-length followup to their High Speed GTO mini-album. The as of yet untitled album is being produced by Ralph Patlan(MEGADETH, UFO, MICHAEL SCHENKER). White Wizzard bassist, Jon Leon checks in with a short update concerning the progress of the recording sessions and the steps thereafter:

"We're just finishing up tracking our full length album. 10 songs that will rip your head off. The screaming demon (singer, Wyatt Anderson) just finished his vocal tracks and he did an amazing job. We are taking a week off and then next week we will go to mix. We will be mixing the record at legendary Prairie Sun Recording in Northern California. I cannot wait until this record is released, expecting to have it out in early 2010 and then we will tour like mad. We are all excited for next year."

Listen to early versions of two songs expected to be on White Wizzard's 2010 full length followup, '40 Deuces' and 'Over The Top' on the band's official MySpace page.
