Blaze Bayley ranks as one of the finest vocalists and frontmen ever to emerge from the European metal scene. With a career spanning WOLFSBANE, IRON MAIDEN ("The X Factor" (1995) and "Virtual XI" (1998) and his own band BLAZE, he has sold millions of records worldwide and compiled a formidable body of work that includes three solo albums (Silicon Messiah" from 2000, "Tenth Dimension" from 2002, "Blood and Belief" from 2004), a live album ("As Live As It Gets" from 2003), live DVD ("Alive In Poland" ? recorded at the Metalmania Festival 2007), and extensive touring over the years that has consolidated his status as one of the topmetal acts in the world.

The highly anticipated ?The Man Who Would Not Die? is to follow up to 2004?s ?Blood and Belief?, and marks the beginning of a new era on the history of his own band now under the moniker of BLAZE BAYLEY. This band comprises a completely new line up that have created a fresh sound, leaning towards a heavier direction that promises to take the band to a new level in Blaze Bayley?s already rich professional history. The album was engineered by James Dunkley and produced by Blaze Bayley himself. It is also the first recorded showcase for the line-up that comprises Nico Bermudez and Jay Walsh on guitars, David Bermudez on bass and Lawrence Paterson on drums. ?The Man Who Would Not Die?  promises to take Blaze in new song writing directions, ushering in a new phase of an already renowned career. It?s the proof that heavy metal is still up to date in 2008 and is not really ready to die !
