MAD MAX - New Album To Be Released In October/November; Cover Art Revealed
August 21, 2013, 11 years ago
German rockers MAD MAX will release their new album, Interceptor, in Germany on October 28th and in North America on November 5th via SPV. Michael Voss (vocals, lead guitar), Jürgen Breforth (guitar), Roland Bergmann (bass) and Axel Kruse (drums), promise “full throttle from start to finish” and sum up the direction of their new record in just two words: “It rocks!”
Or, as guitarist Jürgen Breforth puts it: “Whereas some rock groups become insipid and balladesque with time, we’ve taken the opposite route and deliver nothing but pure energy.”
Interceptor was produced by frontman Michael Voss at his own Kidpool Studio in Münster, with the drum recordings completed at the renowned Principal Studios in Senden. The record was mastered at the MSM Studios in Munich, where once upon a time Gotthard added the final polish to their works. Breforth: “This time we made a conscious decision to allow ourselves more external output, yet without overdoing it.”
There are ten new songs on Interceptor, including ´Turn It Down`, the obligatory cover song by THE SWEET. “It’s what our fans are used to, so we just have to grit our teeth,” jokes Breforth.
Mad Max and Dutch hard rock legends VENGEANCE are teaming up for a European in November. Dates can be found below.
