The wait is over, today finally sees the release of “Overdriver”, the fantastic new album by high-energy rock’n’roll royalty, The Hellacopters, who are commemorating their 30th anniversary as a band with their ninth full length.
The successor of their glowingly praised, chart-storming comeback album, “Eyes of Oblivion”, is filled to the brim with roaring guitars and earth-shattering grooves, fist-raising energy and anthemic choruses, while keeping the variety richer than ever before.
Singles such as ‘Leave A Mark‘, and the instant hits ‘(I Don’t Wanna Be) Just A Memory‘ and ‘Do You Feel Normal‘ have only shown a small part of the stylistic range you can find on “Overdriver”. With fast-paced bangers like ‘Wrong Face On‘ and ‘Faraway Looks‘ THE HELLACOPTERS even nod to their early days.
In celebration of its release day, a full album stream of “Overdriver” is now available on YouTube. Go check it out below and turn the volume all the way up.
The Hellacopters will play a couple of release shows in Sweden, Finland and Norway, most of which are already sold out. Their guests will be the Swedish rock band Spiders. More headline shows in Germany and Denmark with support by legendary US rock’n’roll heroes Supersuckers will follow in April, as well as a few selected summer festival shows later in the year.
