Vor einigen Tagen erst haben die kultigen NWOBHM Vertreter um Bassist Lee Payne und Frontmann Harry “The Tyrant” Conklin (Jag Panzer) ihre zehnte Studioscheibe „Never A Prophet In Your Own Land“ für den 25. September angekündigt. Nun folgt die erste Single `Iron Mask´.
Payne gibt zu Protokoll:
“We have the same stable line-up as »Heathen Cross«, I am delighted to say. Vocals by the one and only Harry Conklin, guitars by Luke Hatton and Chris Coss. Ash Baker on drums. Luke, Chris and Ash have been with Cloven Hoof for over ten years now; they know their roles inside out. I have been in the band since 1979 on bass from the very start, so I should have an idea of what I am doing by now (laughs).”
“»Never A Prophet In Your Own Land« is not in fact a direct continuation of »Heathen Cross«. »Heathen Cross« had its own darkly heavy and brooding atmosphere. »Never A Prophet In Your Own Land« resembles »A Sultan’s Ransom« more closely, yet this resemblance was not contrived or planned. It just turned out that way.”
