Hey people, I posted the exact same thing on the PX forum, but thought it would be nice to share this information over here as well!

I found this at MikePortnoy.com posted half an hour ago by moderator Weymolith:



DEREK SHERINIAN In Studio With ZAKK WYLDE2006-01-10 17:30:38

Famed keyboardist, DEREK SHERINIAN, is in the studio producing yet another masterpiece. The new untitled work, his fifth solo album, is currently underway in Sherinian’s own Beachwood Manor Studios in Burbank, CA. This new album is slated to be released June 2006 worldwide on InsideOut Music in North America and Europe and Marquee/Avalon in Japan.

After a nine month world tour with BILLY IDOL, Sherinian went immediately into the studio. With the immense reception to last year’s album Mythology, he decided to bring back several of the available players that made it happen. "This is the fourth solo record of mine that ZAKK WYLDE has played on,” explains Sherinian. "Zakk is the real deal and I am very fortunate to be able to work with him."

The 2006 all-star line-up is comprised of Zakk Wylde (BLACK LABEL SOCIETY/OZZY), John Petrucci (ex-DREAM THEATER band-mate), Steve Lukather (TOTO), Simon Phillips (Toto, THE WHO, JUDAS PRIEST), Tony Franklin (THE FIRM/BLUE MURDER), Brian Tichy (Billy Idol, Ozzy) and other surprise special guests.

Sherinian gained worldwide recognition as a member of Dream Theater from 1994-1999. He has also toured and recorded with ALICE COOPER, KISS and Billy Idol among many others.

Whoohoo!! John Petrucci!!

And Tony Franklin will be participating again, his bass sound is AWESOME! And Simon Phillips on the drums again, the guy's an unbelievable player with great chops and even better feel!

Derek, will he also be producing the album? (And the new PX album?)
Hope so!

Cheers!!

I just wish they would get the next PX cd finished first...
I still think his first solo disc "Planet X" is awesome, but it's quite a lineup for sure.

Is this going to be coming out before the new Planet X then? And does anyone know what's stalling the new PX album?

frank

Nobody knows for sure ataraxia, but I believe it's Allan Holdsworth who's taking so long to record his tracks. Just my guess...

And I don't know which will be released sooner... I hope PX, but we'll just have to wait and see.

Let's be honest, PX nowadays is basically Virgil's band and material with Derek in tow.
