GOTTHARD – NEW ALBUM to come out on 1 June
09 March 2012GOTTHARD is in the final stages of the production of the new album 'Firebirth', which will be released on 1st June by Nuclear Blast.
It is the eagerly-awaited first album with NIC MAEDER.
The album was produced in Yellow House Studios, owned by the band, in Lugano, Switzerland, by guitarist/songwriter Leo Leoni and Paul Lani, who has previously worked with GOTTHARD on earlier albums, (incl. 'G-spot' and 'Homerun').
Said Leo Leoni: "We are delighted with the new album. Songwriting with Nic and Freddy was a real explosion of inspiration and new ideas!
Regarding sound and production, we have returned to our roots and we deliberately produced it with a pure - and for Gotthard - typical sound.
For us, FIREBIRTH is the comeback album with the rating: BACK TO BASIC !”
MAEDER’s voice has been familiar for quite a while.
The first single, released at the end of 2011, with the title 'Remember It’s Me', is still heard frequently on the radio - check bellow.
The free download via the GOTTHARD web page was accessed countless times and started a firestorm of enthusiasm and positive feedback.
Nic Maeder: "It was absolutely amazing to experience the positive feedback from the Gotthard fans and the media after the release of 'Remember It’s Me'.
Now I am looking forward to the reaction to our first album together. The chemistry in the band feels fantastic and we are very much looking forward to being onstage in a couple of weeks and rocking with the fans.“
The first trial by fire will be in Latin America – there will first of all be a warm-up tour in May before the band will take the lead in several well-known European festivals.
A big headliner tour is already planned for the autumn round the halls of Europe.
