SUPREMACY Featuring Former SCORPIONS, BONFIRE, JADED HEART, FRONTLINE Members Change Band Name To PHANTOM 5
November 11, 2015, 9 years ago
The German band formerly known as Supremacy has decided to change its name to Phantom 5 in order to avoid any confusion with other bands using the former moniker.
Producer and guitarist Michael Voss says: ”There is so much traffic around when it comes to the names for another band. We first had the Supremacy name and really rigged it, but fans worldwide contacted us that there were other bands who already used the brand. So we developed a new one and finally got lucky to find: Phantom 5!”
Phantom 5 is the new band formed by some German hard rock luminaries, including former Bonfire singer Claus Lessmann, former Frontline guitarist Robby Boebel, former Scorpions bassist Francis Buchholz and former Jaded Heart drummer Axel Kruse - along with Michael Voss (Casanova).
Voss is currently putting the finishing touches to the mixes and says: “For me it sounds like we did a follow up to the famous Bonfire Fireworks album with a touch of Frontline meets Jaded Heart groove… it is a driving monster with huge walls of guitars, powerful soaking drums and fine catchy melodies… we took a trip back into the world of the eighties!!!”
The band plans to release the record in the first half of 2016. Stay tuned for more details.
