In terms of what he envisions his next solo album to sound and feel like, Bach advised: “Well, I’m actually going to try to make a career-defining album, like the ultimate record that you would expect from me. So if you like “Skid Row,” “Slave to the Grind,” “Subhuman Race,” “Angel Down,” “Kicking & Screaming,” if you like those, you’re going to like this one. I’m not going to do like a country record or a rap album, it’s going to be a rock ‘n’ roll album. And I’ve got to say I’m inspired by Judas Priest, who has always been one of my favorite bands. But their album “Firepower” is such a hit with the fans, that would be a great scenario for me. If I could come up with a record that the fans would like the way that Judas Priest did, that’s my objective.”
With the release of Skid Row‘s debut self-titled album approaching its 30th year anniversary, Bach was asked how he feels about the milestone. Bach replied: “Well, you know, you only get one 30th anniversary, so it is quite amazing. I don’t have contact with those guys, so that’s kind of a drag, but I’m not going to ignore that 30th anniversary. I plan on commemorating it if I can in some way, possibly with a live show, we’re thinking about that. I think Atlantic is thinking of re-releasing the first album, but I don’t know the details on that. But we’ll find out soon.”
