Queen`s new album `The Cosmos Rocks` will not only have a plus Paul Rodgers on vocals, you can also plus Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters on one track.
Hawkins does backing vocals on `C-Lebrity`, the lead track from the album.The new album will be the first Queen album since `Made In Heaven` in 1995. That release was a compilation of completed tracks by the late Freddie Mercury.
`The Cosmos Rocks` was recorded between November 2007 and August 2008 at Roger Taylor`s home studio, The Priory, in Puttenham, England.
"We believe that this is an album in the old sense of the word ' something you can put on and listen to all the way through, and it takes you on a journey,” Taylor and co-founder Brian May said in a statement. “The subjects and moods in it are widely spaced, but nevertheless, a challenge to the listener to put his day on hold for an hour or so, be drawn in, make connections, and experience something new."
"There`s a lot of guitar orchestras and some of our old trademarks, but at the core of it you`ll hear the three of us playing," adds May. "People really, truly playing together in the studio ' you don`t get that much these days."
