Meat Loaf has released a single of a new song called "The Monster Is Loose". It features classic artwork on the cover, and the song itself sports a slightly modern sound with heavy guitars and Meat Loaf's classic operatic vocals. Check it out

Did I ever hurt you in any way? If I did, then hear my apology: FUCK YOU!
Like a bat out of hell
Ill be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell Ill be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell Ill be gone when the morning comes
When the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlights shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
Ill come crawling on back to you
Well, anybody can write Broadway rock that sounds like Bat Out of Hell...Christ, I can write Steinmann as well as he can. It doesn't take much, just a sonic bombardment, really...a lot of musicians do it today...Jon Oliva Inc. and Andrew W.K. leap to mind immediately, and there's a hundred others at a minimum...
Technically, Steinmann doesn't have to be involved with the album, per se - most of Meat's not Steinmann stuff has been fairly good, anyway, IMO.
If it goes #1, Jim'll probably regret his decision...but honestly, I really don't think it's going to in this day and age.
Again, I said the same thing about Bat Out of Hell II a month before it's release and was I ever wrong...
Can't he come up with an album title other than "Bat Out Of Hell"? "Bat Out Of Hell III" is bordering on the absurd. The next one will be called "Bat Out Of Hell IV, The Hell With All This Hell Shit".

Bat Out of Hell came out in '77, I think...Bat Out of Hell II in '93, Bat Out of Hell - Live With the Melbourne Symphony in '04...and now Bat Out of Hell III in '06.
Between all of those, he's recorded Dead Ringer in '81, Midnight at the Lost and Found in '83, Bad Attitude in '84, Blind Before I Stop in '86, Live at Wembley in '87, Welcome to the Neighborhood in '96, Live Around the World in '96, The Very Best Of in '98 (I count that because of the new material on it), VH1 Storytellers in '99, and Couldn't Have Said it Better in '03.
With a break between '77 and '81, Meat Loaf's been making music almost consistantly since 1977 and the "Bat Out of Hell" series of titles is just something he revisits every 13-15 years or so.
He's done plenty of non Bat Out of Hell albums over the years, actually. Mostly it's people who really aren't too familiar with his music that think the Bat Out of Hell series is all he does...
Admittedly, those albums are without a doubt his biggest hits...
