Billy Morrison’s new album features a parade of heavy metal artists

With his latest solo album, “Hollow,” Billy Morrison is once again firing on all cylinders (figuratively speaking, of course), as per theprp. Later this year, the guitarist from Billy Idol will release it via TLG, Zoid, and Virgin Music Group. The album’s twelve tracks will once again include a number of notable guests; the list that follows has been put together. The latter two musicians will be featured on a brand-new song called “Becoming,” which will be released on March 27. Two previously released songs are likely Morrison’s featured collaborations with Run-D.M.C.‘s DMC and Cypress Hill‘s B-Real. Morrison made this claim while discussing the production of this upcoming album.

• Marilyn Manson
• Dexter Holland (The Offspring)
• Chuck D (Public Enemy
• B Real (Cypress Hill)
• Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses)
• Steve Stevens (Billy Idol)
• DMC (Run-DMC)
• Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme)
• Sully Erna (Godsmack)

The last album was so much fun and such a creative experience for me that I got the band back together for a follow up record. It’s on the same label (TLG | ZOID | Virgin Music Group), with the same crew (Barry Pointer mixing the record, Dave Donnelly mastering and all art / photography by Jane Stuart) and I’m excited to share this body of work with the world.

The guests on this record are at the core of the collaborative spirit that I try to put in the center of these records. Every single person I worked with stepped up, brought their A game and helped me produce an album that crosses genres, features some really diverse songwriting, and yet has a truly cohesive, and powerful sound. Ultimately, I am just grateful to everyone involved for allowing me to do this again.
