Def Leppard 2018. By dltourhistory

Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell has been interviewed by the Canadian press and mentioned work on the next studio album.

Vivian spoke to Matt Olson on the Saskatoon Star Phoenix ahead of the show in that city on 27th July.

The 2019 Canadian tour starts later tonight in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Vivian talked about playing in Canada again, pressure, the selist, making new music and how long the band might continue for.

He once again suggests the band are highly likely to work more intensely on their new songs in 2020.

The possibility of a full new album was also mentioned.

New Music

"The one thing I can’t say is when it’s coming out. We’re certainly working on new music, and it’ll certainly be next year we’ll be working on it 100 per cent, but I don’t know when it’ll be complete. With Def Leppard, that’s always a dangerous prediction."

New Songs/Album In 2020

" Yeah! There’s some new songs being kicked around. I don’t know when it is we’ll actually get around to getting the five of us in the same place to record it — I assume that would be sometime early next year — and I don’t know what it’s going to be, if we’re just going to aim for doing a couple of songs or a full album there’s always something on the go. Everyone in the band is a writer, everyone has ideas going, it’s just a question of when we collectively focus on trying to make that commitment to get together to make a record, and that’ll definitely be sometime next year."
