From Iron Maiden - España facebook:

"BRUCE DICKINSON HAS HIS NEW SOLO ALREADY READY: “IT’S ANTI-I.A. AND TOTALLY LIVE”.
While Iron Maiden remains focused on his live action, Bruce Dickinson isn't slowing down. The vocalist has confirmed in an interview with Rolling Stone that his upcoming solo album is now completely finished, although its release will not arrive until 2027.
The record, as yet untitled, was recorded earlier this year at Studio 606, owned by Dave Grohl, in California. And true to his character, Dickinson has opted for a straightforward, raw, and fireworks-free approach.
"Just finished a solo album: we did 16 tracks in 21 days, all 100% live." It's like the 'anti-I.A.' generation."
Far from hyper-edited productions, the singer wanted to capture the purest essence of live, something that fits perfectly with his artistic philosophy."

I’m starting to wonder if Bruce’s next solo album might lean more toward the spirit of No Prayer for the Dying, Tattooed Millionaire, or Balls to Picasso. Maybe lyrically angrier, more politically charged?

I’m drawing that conclusion purely from his recording approach—which, of course, could be completely wrong—but for me, that ‘straightforward, raw, and fireworks-free approach’ instantly gives off the aura of a street-level, attitude-driven album.

Then again, if the music ends up sounding mean, direct, and in-your-face, it could work really well.

You could also argue that Accident of Birth had a similarly raw and straightforward production approach, yet lyrically it was mystical and overall fantastic.

In any case, the hype is definitely building.
Yes straightforward raw.....that not means AOB ,CW or Tos. The first 2 albums expecially cw is not straught and raw.
 
From the same source (in previous post i copy pasted not all text):

"But the most striking thing is that all this comes at a time when, physically, Dickinson continues to defy any logic.
About his current state, Bruce himself made it clear:
"I have two metal hips, a broken Achilles tendon that was sewn five years ago, several bruises, bumps and bumps." But I'm still running around like crazy and the voice is in great shape. "A statement that perfectly reflects his mentality: far from slowing down, he's still active, energetic and completely committed to his music.
For this new work, Dickinson has surrounded himself with his current solo band: Mistheria on keyboards, Dave Moreno on drums, Tanya O'Callaghan on bass, and Chris Declercq and Philip Näslund guitars. In addition, he again has his usual collaborator, Roy Z, a key piece in his solo sound, which he repeats as a co-author and producer.
The result aims to be an intense disk, recorded in just three weeks and with a clear philosophy: capture the moment without filters. A job that, though won't see the light until 2027, is already profiling itself as another solid chapter in Dickinson's solo run.
Because if one thing has proven over the years, it’s that no matter the wear and tear or the passage of time: Bruce Dickinson keeps running, creating... and defying the limits."

WHAT?!!!

Is this site making things up, or is Roy actually involved? Now it’s becoming really hard not to get excited.

Did Bruce and Roy reconcile, or is this just the site’s authors indulging in wishful thinking? What the hell?

EDIT: I’m leaning toward the possibility that they mixed recent, truthful information with a few made-up details.

That's where I'd hedge my bets as well. Someone probably didn't do a whole lot of fact-checking and simply assumed Roy was involved as he always has been in the past.
