Scorpions - Peacemaker

Legendary rockers SCORPIONS have return with their new single titled "Peacemaker" comes from the band's upcoming 19th album, "Rock Believer", out Feb. 25. An album that was created in the studio during the lockdown in Hannover.

SCORPIONS are a German rock band formed in 1965 in Hanover by Rudolf Schenker. Since the band's inception, its musical style has ranged from hard rock, heavy metal, glam metal, and soft rock. The lineup from 1978 to 1992 was the most successful incarnation of the group, and included Klaus Meine (vocals), Rudolf Schenker (rhythm guitar), Matthias Jabs (lead guitar), Francis Buchholz (bass), and Herman Rarebell (drums). The band's only continuous member has been Schenker, although Meine has appeared on all of SCORPIONS' studio albums, while Jabs has been a consistent member since 1978, and bassist Paweł Mąciwoda and drummer Mikkey Dee have been in the band since 2003 and 2016 respectively.

"Rock Believer" marks the first SCORPIONS studio album since 2015's "Return To Forever". It's also their first to feature former MOTÖRHEAD drummer Mikkey Dee, who joined the group in 2016 following the death of Lemmy Kilmister and subsequent dissolution of his band.

The band recorded the bulk of the album at Peppermint Park Studios in their native Hanover, Germany, and coproduced it with engineer Hans-Martin Buff. They had originally planned to tap Los Angeles-based producer Greg Fidelman (METALLICA, BLACK SABBATH, SLAYER), but the coronavirus pandemic thwarted their plans. "I did a lot of basic tracks and the preproduction vocals in my own place before I came here to Peppermint Park, where we recorded the album finally," Meine tells UCR.

"But to have the band in one room together and to play together and to feel it together, I think that makes such a difference. Especially with a drummer in the band like Mikkey Dee."

SCORPIONS will support the release of "Rock Believer" with a 2022 world tour, which begins on March 26 with a nine-show residency at Las Vegas' Zappos Theater before heading to Europe. MAMMOTH WVH will join them on select dates. See all the dates below.
