After their previous release, “The Sky is the Limit”, Norwegian band STARGAZER entered the radar of connoisseurs of the hard-rocking world. The group was loudly hailed as one to watch. They received a lot of great reviews all over the western world and were, back then in late 2019, ready to take on the world for serious touring. But serious touring saw an abrupt end due to Covid-19 for almost every band in 2020-21, with Stargazer being no exception. 

The nordic five-piece didn’t lose their spirit and, diligently, took the downtime to start penning their next album. Produced by guitar player William Ernstsen and vocalist Tore André Helgemo, “Life Will Never Be The Same” is the result of those dark times with a silver lining ahead. Engineered by William at Jedimasterstudios, Trondheim, and mixed and mastered in Medley Studios, Copenhagen, by Soren Andersen (Glenn Hughes, Electric Guitars, etc), “Life Will Never Be The Same” is exactly the kind of album that you’d expect from a matured Stargazer and then some. 

The five-piece powerhouse hammers on with Scandinavian vibes that consist of virtuosity and a vintage sound with a modern twist. Firing on all cylinders in combination with the sense of good melodies, great riffs, solos and songwriting handcraft. With one of rock’s best voices and one of the best blues-based hard rock guitar players around today. All this on top of a rock steady hard groove with killer rock songs such as “Live My Dream”, or down to the most tender and heartfelt tunes, for example, the single “Live Today”, with emotions worn on their sleeves. 

“Life Will Never Be The Same” tracklist:

1. Can You Conceive It
2. Live My Dream
3. Rock The Sky
4. Live Today
5. Don’t Kill
6. Will I Come To Heaven
7. Heartbroken
8. Turn Off The Light
9. Beyond The Moon
10. Take Me Home
11. Push Me

“Life Will Never Be The Same” is the sound of Norwegian classic hard rock flagship, and Stargazer sets sail again with this third release in their discography. One to change their life – and yours – for good. 

“Life Will Never Be The Same” is out today on digital, digipack CD and gatefold double LP (black vinyl, limited to 500 units). Orders are available here and here.

Tore André Helgemo – vocals, rhythm guitar

After three successful singles where STARGAZER confirmed to be at the forefront of classic heavy metal/hard rock in Norway, it’s now time for “Heartbroken”, one of the ballads of the upcoming album “Life Will Never Be The Same”. And the Norwegian quintet lives up to expectations: Scorpions chills, Blackmore-inspired guitar solo, and the Tore André Helgemo vocal tone, which always manages to pay homage to Ronnie James Dio without being a copycat. 

One of the most heartfelt ballads of the year from one of the best heavy metal/hard rock albums in the latest times.

STARGAZER have teamed up with Metal Shock Finland to premiere “Heartbroken” for Finnish territory, enjoy it here:

And if you have a gram of heavy metal or hard rock in your blood system, it will surely make your day.
