Roger Taylor hopes Queen’s new material with Adam Lambert gets released. 

According to the drummer, he and guitarist Brian May hit the studio with Adam, who performs live with the group in place of late frontman Freddie Mercury to work on original music.

While the musician is fond of their latest music, however, Brian apparently “lost interest” in the project, leaving the future of the tracks uncertain. 

“Well, Brian suddenly lost interest and I don’t really know why,” Taylor told MOJO. “We started it in Nashville when we were all quite tired.

“We couldn’t decide on a title and the lyric felt a little too negative for Queen, maybe. But it was pretty damn good, and I hope it comes to light.”

Brian previously hinted at new music from the rockers, but said the tracks didn’t “hit the button in the right way”.

“Adam, Roger and myself have been in the studio trying things out, just because things came up. But up to this point we haven’t felt that anything we’ve done has hit the button in the right way,” he explained.

“So it’s not like we’re closed to the idea, it’s just that it hasn’t happened yet.”
