13. 20 Years Anniversary Song

The band says:

Harry: " Our personal highlight is the "20 YEARS ANNIVERSARY SONG". Good old friends and companions join us in this song with their great performance. ANDI DERIS (Helloween), SCHMIER (Destruction), ROLF STAHLHOFEN (Ex-Söhne Mannheims), DORO, CLAUS LESSMANN (Bonfire), DAVID READMAN (Pink Cream 69) and our long-time friend WALTER PIETSCH (Ex-AXXIS)!"

Bernhard: "We were totaly overwhelmed about the reactions of these people. Just a small mail and we get a quick YES, without any questions:-)
DORO was on tour and because of the timing she has sung everything in a hotelroom (must be stress, but she did it:-), ROLF wanted to come in our studio to let our good old rock n'roll memories come alive, ANDI and DAVID recorded their voices with full power directly after my request, SCHMIER lefts his mark with his super voice on the song, CLAUS delivered not only his voice but also squiers and 2.voices and WALTER has played his Solos with heart and soul like ever. We really want to say THANXX to everybody and we're really proud to know such great people. THANXX!"

Harry: " Rob and Marco were very enthusiastic during the recordings and production. They wrote the song TASTE MY BLOOD just to give UTOPIA another colour. Great. Was a lot of fun!"

Bernhard: "Recording-wise we put a lot of power into the guitarsound. Different amps, mic's and different guitars for each song. Everything should fit perfectly to the songs.
At the same time Harry was focused on his key-arrangements with new sounds and equipment. He recorded millions of keyboardtracks and it was not easy to decide which ones we should leave or erase.

This time the songs were predestinated for a lot of musical stuff. By the end of the day the sound is really FAT. '
Okay, on a mp3file you wouldn't get it:-) '
UTOPIA is a step further, with less female vocals, more guitars, more keys, more bass and more musical parts. YES, these songs forced us to go this way:-) It's good to have ALEX on the drums:-) His kind of drumming fits perfectly to these songs.

All in all it's a really compact album and I'm looking forward to see your reactions:-)!"
