About:

Bang, bang, bangin around, bangin around the world.
No doubt about it, you can’t hit the nail any harder on the head than in the chorus of Bang., title song on the new Gotthard album. The Swiss rock band has been at home touring the globe for over 20 years throughout Europe, North and South America and Asia on the back of 14 studio and live albums. Gotthard have collected multiple gold and platinum awards on the way, selling almost three million records and appearing at the biggest, most important festivals on the map of rock. The five members of the band are looking forward to releasing their new album BANG. with as much excitement as any of their previous releases. To be absolutely clear: they have raised the bar of their ambitions and aspirations, their expectations of what they hope to achieve could not be higher. There’s a newfound homogeneity to the band which has had a positive effect on the quality of our work and we feel that these 15 songs go a long way to proving that. When Nic joined us two years ago on Firebirth, the pressure on us was naturally enormous, but we had the element of surprise on our side and Gotthard stayed true to Gotthard, even with a new singer, as bass player Marc Lynn explains. This time around it is up to us to prove, in fact we want to prove, that the standards we set on Firebirth were no flash in the pan. And I’m sure that we have succeeded in doing that.
