The new album Rock Believer on an exclusive limited black/white 2LP (180g) in a gatefold including 16 tracks and an exclusive limited clear 7’’ vinyl including the title track “Rock Believer” and another track from the album. The spectacular cover of the single was designed by Klaus Voormann, Grammy winner (“Best Record Cover 1966") and also creator of the artwork of the award-winning Beatles album “Revolver".

Legendary rockers Scorpions return with their new album “Rock Believer'', which was created in the studio during the lockdown in their home base Hannover. “The album was written and recorded in the style of the classic Scorpions DNA with core Schenker/Meine compositions. We really went back to the essence of what defined us in the first place”, says front-man Klaus Meine. He goes on to explain how the new songs came to have such incredible, fresh energy and fervor: “We recorded the album as a band, live, in one room, like we did back in the Eighties. We can’t wait to get started and finally play for our fans again.” The sound of the new album has massive energy, delivers a real adrenaline rush and shows uncompromising quality.

The record consists awesome tracks, each one of them a lyrical short story, minimal poems in prose, presented in a lavish sonic guise, featuring the SCORPIONS’ characteristic trademarks from the early 1980s, yet produced from a 2020s perspective. The wealth of inspiration from their longstanding career is an overflowing treasure chest that forges an arc between yesterday and tomorrow. Rock Believer is perhaps the group’s most characteristic album to date – a recording by a band at the pinnacle of their musical art.
