Stargazer - 'Stone Cold Creature' (official album stream)

Στα (εικονικά ή "κανονικά") ράφια των δισκοπωλείων βρίσκεται ο τέταρτος "ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Stargazer. Φέρει τον τίτλο "Stone Cold Creature" και κυκλοφόρησε μόλις σήμερα. Οι Stargazer μας έρχονται από την Σκανδιναβία.

Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από 17 έτη, με την πρώιμη μορφή τους (F.R.I.E.N.D.) να μας γυρίζει πίσω στο 2001. Μελωδικό hard rock - heavy metal η πρότασή τους με αναφερόμενες επιρροές μπάντες όπως οι Black Sabbath, Van Halen, Ozzy Osbourne, Whitesnake, Rainbow, Led Zeppelin, Dokken, Gary Moore κλπ.

Δελτίο τύπου: «Hailing from Norway’s rich rock tradition, Stargazer has been a powerhouse of melodic hard rock since 2008. Blending classic rock roots with a modern sonic edge, the band has delivered three acclaimed studio albums and now returns with their most explosive effort yet: “Stone Cold Creature”.

Produced by Soren Andersen (Glenn Hughes, Electric Guitars), “Stone Cold Creature” is a bold, riff-driven hard rock statement, overflowing with soaring vocals, piercing guitar solos, and infectious melodies.

It’s a future classic for fans of timeless rock with a contemporary production touch. The new album follows the band’s impressive discography: “Stargazer” (2009), “The Sky Is The Limit” (2019), and “Life Will Never Be The Same” (2023), each release pushing boundaries while staying true to the spirit of classic rock.

Stargazer’s dynamic live energy has brought them to stages alongside legendary acts such as Gary Moore, Saxon, Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Glenn Hughes, Wig Wam, and Magnum. n 2025, the band is set to take on one of Scandinavia’s biggest stages at Tons of Rock Festival, marking another career milestone and proving their continued rise as one of hard rock’s most exciting names.»

Tore André Helgemo (vocals): «This album is everything we envisioned and more. “Stone Cold Creature” is a testament to who we are as a band – massive riffs, soaring vocals and lyrics. Pure hard rock energy with lots of catchy melodies and elements throughout the album. We can’t wait for the world to hear it!»

William Ernstsen (guitar): «We poured our hearts and souls into every note on “Stone Cold Creature”. This is classic hard rock for the future - raw, powerful, and built to stand the test of time. Screaming vocals, massive riffs and blistering guitar solos. I believe this album will be a hit for classic hard rock fans around the globe.»
