Brian May has announced plans to begin work on the first Queen album since late frontman Freddie Mercury died in 1991. The Bohemian Rhapdosy guitarist recruited Paul Rogers to take over vocal duties for a series of live dates earlier this year (06), and now he wants to record new tracks with drummer Roger Taylor and the former Free singer. He says, "I talked to Paul, and confirmed we will be heading into the studio in October. Now it really looks as if we are on. "(It) will bring us all to a new place. We will take it gently at first, the priority being to feel good, and put ourselves in the mood to create."

Not sure what to think of this. Brian and Roger have both written some great songs in the past, that's one of the things I loved about Queen how they all wrote and sometimes Brian and Roger would sing too, but without Freddie I'm not sure. I have the live DVD of the Queen + Paul Rogers tour and I thought it was pretty good (well, the show was, the DVD was crap) and will of course be interested to hear anything new, but am not sure if Paul would be writing with them too, I'd rather hear songs by just Brian and Roger I think.
