German hard rock Singer Carsten “Lizard” Schulz (DOMAIN, FROZEN RAIN etc) is ready to release his new solo album “The Day The Earth Stopped Turning”, with his new band THE CARSTEN LIZARD SCHULZ SYNDICATE (aka CLSS).

Carsten states:
…the deed is done! After one year of producing and recording, half a decade of songwriting (no, I’m not kiddin’!), it is done:

2 CDs, 16 songs, 1 1/2 hours of Classic Rock!

Keep your fingers crossed, that I will be finding a label crazy enough to release a double solo album of this mostly unknown little singer from Germany trying to revive the true Classic Rock spirit of the 70s!
