ALCATRAZZ schicken sich an ihr nächstes Album ”Take No Prisoners“ am 19. Mai herauszubringen, das sich wieder am ursprünglichen Sound der 80er Metaller orientieren soll. Vorab hat die Truppe den neuen Track `Battlelines` als Video veröffentlicht. Die erste Single zusammen mit Girlschool, hatten Waldo und Co. bereits Anfang Februar der Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt.
Gründungsmitglied Jimmy Waldo erklärt zum Song:
“Battlelines is one of the songs we feel is very representative of the direction the band is at now and where we are going, which is powerful, heavy and melodic metal in that British and European style”
Gary Shea ergänzt:
“In the mid 1980’s Alcatrazz strayed far too much from the direction of our debut album, that first record set the blueprint of what the band was all about and with the recent two albums over the last couple years and now even more so with this new one, ‘Take No Prisoners’, we are finally establishing the true sound of the band. If fans give this a listen they will hopefully find a lot to like!” “We look forward to adding Battlelines to the live set too. It’s about the use of radar in warfare from WW2 until the present day; real heads down heavy metal stuff!“
