Award-winning, legendary
guitarist Michael Schenker will release a brand
new studio album entitled “Bridge
The Gap” in the UK on Monday December
2nd. Released by in-akustik, the album features
Schenker’s band Temple of Rock which consists
of ex-Scorpions Herman Rarebell (drums) and
Francis Buchholz (bass), plus ex-Rainbow’s Doogie White (vocals) and Wayne Findlay
(guitar, keyboards).
Listen to the world premiere
of new song “Where The Wild Winds Blow” - http://snd.sc/18Rlbs0
The new album features 13
hard-hitting, adrenalin fuelled melodic rock’n’roll
songs that showcase Schenker’s distinctive and
explosive guitar playing, valiantly underpinned by the ferocious rhythm section
of Rarebell and Buchholz, marking the first time Schenker, Rarebell and Buchholz
appeared on the same album together since the Scorpions’ 1979 “Lovedrive”.
“I wanted to combine the old
with the new,” says Schenker. “That’s why the album’s
called Bridge The Gap. With Wayne playing 7 string
guitar we created some low, heavy modern sounds. Since I play and experiment on
a regular basis, I always have some new, fresh sparks to share when I record a
new album. I am inspired from within. It’s infinite like a kaleidoscope.
Continues Schenker - “As former members of the Scorpions, Herman,
Francis and I have been out of the loop of rock’n’roll
for quite a while. Getting together for
the first time since the Lovedrive album is an
incredible jump. We’re connecting the past with the present. We’re bridging the
gap.”
