HARDCORE SUPERSTAR To Release New Studio Album This Year

Sweden’s self-coined “street metallers” HARDCORE SUPERSTAR have signed a deal with Golden Robot Records for Australia, New Zealand, South America, USA and Canada. The band’s new album will be released later this year.

Mark Alexander-Erber, president and founder of Golden Robot, said in a statement: “I have been chasing HARDCORE SUPERSTAR for years, and to finally have them signed for a brand-new album in 2021, we are all over the moon. A fantastic band with a great history and we are honored to be involved.”

HARDCORE SUPERSTAR‘s 11th studio album, “You Can’t Kill My Rock ‘N Roll”, was released in September 2018 via Gain Music Entertainment. The LP was recorded throughout 2017 and early 2018 at the Österlyckan (Wooden Hybrid) studios near Gothenburg. It was produced by the bandmembers themselves and mixed in Stockholm by Dino Medanhodzic.

Asked in a 2019 interview with Roppongi Rocks if he feels he and his bandmates have to write fun, “feel-good” party songs rather than more serious songs, HARDCORE SUPERSTAR singer Jocke Berg said: “HARDCORE SUPERSTAR is synonymous with the word ‘feel-good.’ It should be fun. It’s drinking and toasting. A hell of a pre-party with HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, sort of. The previous album wasn’t like that. It didn’t end up much feel-good as it was quite dark. But if we wanted to write a TOOL song or something like that, it would not fit in with HARDCORE. We have to be in the musical region where the HARDCORE SUPERSTAR sound lives. In that case, we would have to do it as a side project. I want to do a death metal album. Unfortunately, I can’t do that with HARDCORE.”

As for how he would describe HARDCORE SUPERSTAR‘s sound, Jocke said: “The new album feels a lot like arena rock. You can hear QUEEN vibes. SLADE — some obvious vibes. ZZ TOP. I’d like to call it arena rock. That’s the kind of vibe we have. It’s a big sound. We had QUEEN as a starting point. QUEEN‘s fantastic. Especially with Freddie Mercury on vocals. We had that arena rock feeling as a starting point. We tried to capture that feeling somehow.”Read MoreBLABBERMOUTH.NET

Fozzy Saves the World 2023: Baltimore Show Review

Fozzy comes back to Baltimore and brings the rock, the roll and David Arquette.

Chris Jericho and Fozzy always bring a great show with them , this time they had The Nocturnal Affair and Seventh Day Slumber along for the ride .

The Nocturnal Affair is a fun band to watch. A little mix of Dark Goth Rock and alternative industrial is how to explain them. Singer Brendan Shane is a great frontman and knows how to rock out the crowd. 

This was my first time seeing Seventh Day Slumber and they didn’t disappoint. The band puts on a great show and singer Joseph Rojas is not only an amazing singer but just an all around great guy. The band has been around since the late 90s and still just puts on an amazing show. 

Fozzy was next and the crowd was chanting “Fozzy,Fozzy” all night long. Part rock n roll crowd part wrestling crowd, the fans were ready for experience the “Walls of Jericho”. This band is always fun. The whole band just rocks the whole stage and you can tell that they are having fun. Jericho is a natural born entertainer and just oozes charisma all over the stage. 

Billy Grey and Rich Ward are a hoot to watch. Both have so much energy and are bouncing all over the stage , rich even gives PJ a few smooches now and then, and when they rock that guitar solos it’s insane. I love watching the crowd and the little kids who are at the show just enjoying watching  “The Ayatollah of Rock ’N’ Rolla”, with songs like “Drinking with Jesus” and “Judas” the fans go insane. 

As I mentioned in the opening statement, as we were leaving the venue after the show, the former WCW Heavyweight Champion David Arquette was coming into the venue to talk to Jericho. David was in town for monstermania horror con weekend and stopped in get a glimpse of Fozzy.
