Miss the ’80’s? The Scorpions are back! Apple Music reports, “A longtime friend—and diehard Scorpions fan—from Athens, Greece, encouraged them to write something in the anthemic, MTV-storming style of their ’80s classics Blackout and Love at First Sting. “He said this is what the fans want to hear from us,” lead singer Klaus Meine tells Apple Music. “We thought, well, that’s 40 years ago—come on! But he threw this challenge at us and then we decided, okay, let’s go for it.””
“The result is Rock Believer, their first new studio album in seven years, which recaptures their triumphant ’80s sound amazingly well.” We agree.
