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.

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

Originally released in France on BYG/Actuel in 1971, then licensed to a young Richard Branson for his fledgling Virgin tag in the UK in 1974, this iconic and influential recording is still devastatingly fresh sounding in the 21st century. Weirdness, wisdom, outré rock of the 'highest' order - as you'd expect from the founding-father of acid-rock Daevid Allen.InchThis is a classic...
