SCORPIONS To Release Return To Forever In February; Details Revealed
December 19, 2014, 9 years ago
To coincide with their 50th anniversary celebrations, German hard rock legends the Scorpions will release a new album, Return To Forever, on February 23rd in Europe. For the occasion Klaus Meine (vocals), Rudolf Schenker (guitar) and Matthias Jabs (guitar) have found old demos to rework, arrange and refine. These "forgotten songs" also feature current band members James Kottak (drums) and Pawel Maciwoda (bass). The result is Return To Forever, a bright disk that perfectly reflects what Scorpions do best: direct and melodic hard rock with choruses unstoppable and, of course, beautiful ballads.
