About this product
Despite the shower of praise that inevitably comes with being a heavy metal guitar icon it's surprising how little coverage is given to a man of the talents, dedication and musicality of Axel Rudi Pell. Many guitarists are lauded these days as great guitar players because they treat the fret board like a burning light saber. Technically they may be fine musicians who can play all the notes, often in the right order, but can they produce memorable riffs or soaring solos? In short the answer, for the vast majority, is no. Not even close. This is brought into focus more sharply when listening to Pell. A man who has paid his dues several times over and by rights should be right up there with the legends of the six-string. Too many people he is a legend and their steadfast views will be validated on Game of Sins.

FOR FANS OF Scorpions, Deep Purple, Dio, Whitesnake, Rainbow, MSGNo doubt about it The world would be a much poorer place without Axel Rudi Pell. On his 22nd (!) studio album 'Risen Symbol', the Bochum-basedguitarist and songwriter continues to fly the melodic hard rock flag without watering down his style with pseudo-modern stylistic variations orexpendable studio gimmicks. At the same time, he is constantly looking for new influences, exciting inspirations and catchy hooks. One of the bestthings about ARP's anthems is that they are perfectly tailored to the charismatic voice of frontman Johnny Gioeli. The American vocalist is one of themost eminent rock singers worldwide and, together with Pell, former Rainbow drummer Bobby Rondinelli, and the two longstanding ARP membersFerdy Doernberg (keyboards) and Volker Krawczak (bass), has been an integral part of a perfectly oiled machine for more than ten years, wowing fansand media alike. 'Risen Symbol' will be available on Steamhammer/SPV from 14 June 2024. For all those who can't wait, 3 April 2024 will see thearrival of the lead single 'Guardian Angel', featuring two pre- songs, followed on 22 May 2024 by 'Darkest Hour'. Pell comments InchBoth'Guardian Angel' and 'Darkest Hour' are typical ARP songs, though not necessarily representative of 'Risen Symbol'.Inch
