Ahead of Scorpions December 2 performance at Hell And Heaven Metal Fest in México City, vocalist Klaus Meine spoke with California18.
During the chat, Meine reveals that recording the band's latest studio album Rock Believer, their first with drummer Mikkey Dee, was a fresh and fun creative process.
Says Klaus: “For a long time we have been friends with Motörhead and Lemmy Kilmister, from meeting at so many European festivals, and Mikkey is the best drummer in the world. He was left without a band (after Lemmy died, in 2015), we were left without a drummer (James Kottak). We called him up, we rehearsed and from the first minute he had total chemistry. He is a fantastic guy, and we have corroborated it live: he brings a certain kind of ‘Motörhead vibe’ to the Scorpions sound."
