Adam Lambert talks Queen-influenced third album: ‘They make me feel liberated’


He says that Brian May and Roger Taylor have inspired him to do whatever the fuck he wants



Adam Lambert has given some little clues about his upcoming third album and teased that Queen's music – including his lengthy summer arena tour with the band – has influenced the creative direction.

The glam rocker has been working on material since earlier this year, but he says that Queen's experimental rock sound is now back in style and has liberated him to make the album he wants to make.

Adam told Yahoo!: "Queen's music goes all over the place and obviously spans decades, and so it kind of makes me feel, for my upcoming album, really liberated to do whatever the fuck I want, song to song.

"I think that nowadays, trying to box oneself into a genre is kind of outdated; it doesn't feel like that's what's happening. I think everybody is going, 'OK, I'm going to borrow from this, that, and the other thing; these are my references, and I'll mix it all together in some new way.'"

He added: "I think there's going to be some new sounds on this album that I haven't really gone into before, and some stuff that's very signature me, and some stuff that's a little retro, but not too retro…"
