Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell and his side band Last In Line talk about the song Devil In Me in a new video.
The band members and producer Jeff Pilson feature in the 3 minute video linked below.
The band talk about the writing and recording of the song 'Devil In Me' which was released in November 2015. A second song called 'Martyr' is also available now with an album pre order.
The first time Vivian has written and recorded with Vinny and Jimmy since the 1985 DIO album 'Sacred Heart'.
The Heavy Crown album is released on 19th February.
The band will play tracks from it for the very first time on 20th January in Miami, FL for the Pre-Cruise party.
They will also play a show on the main Hysteria On The High Seas cruise which starts the next day.
Vivian is joined in the band by singer Andrew Freeman and his original DIO band mates Vinny Appice (drums) and bassist Jimmy Bain.
Vivian Campbell Interview Quotes
"Vinny and Jimmy and I were supposed to have a writing session and Jimmy showed up late. So it was just me and Vinny. So OK what are we gonna do. Jimmy's not coming and I didn't have anything to bring. I mean I was kinda hoping Jimmy would show up that day because I was a little bit - the well had run dry. I just started playing da da, da da...and Vinny just started playing behind it. This sounds great. This sounds like classic DIO. And I said where am I gonna go next and I just started playing and the riff came out. I thought oh that's nice. So immediately the iPhone came out and I started recording it."
"It was just one of those inspired kind of moments and I was so inspired by the big groove that Vinny laying down behind me. It just made perfect sense to go to this riff for the verse. And then we sent the MP3 to Andy and Andy just - what he came up with is just classic. It's brilliant and it's so perfect. So very, very chuffed with that one."
