According to a press release, “Seven Deadly” is “an atmospherically dense fabric consisting of classy guitars, tight rock grooves and vocals which are unique to UFO. The classic rock of ‘Burn Your House Down’ features all the important UFO strengths, ‘Going Down To Mojotown’ sees the musicians sound tougher than ever, and last but not least, ‘Wonderland’ features a pointed reference to UFO‘s early days. ‘Angel Station’ sees the band prove how classic rock music is complemented perfectly with epic elements, while ‘Fight Night’ is an excellent track to be performed in a live context.”
The current UFO lineup continues to consist of the three original members, Phil Mogg (vocals), Paul Raymond (guitar, keyboards), and Andy Parker (drums), as well as American world-class guitaristVinnie Moore.
Legendary guitarist Michael Schenker‘s “Temple Of Rock” European tour marks the first time Schenker‘s band features two fellow ex-SCORPIONS members — Herman Rarebell (drums) and Francis Buchholz (bass). Vocalist Doogie White (ex-RAINBOW and YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) and keyboardist Wayne Findlay complete the lineup.
The European concerts feature a plethora of hits spanning Michael Schenker‘s colorful career. Songs that are being performed by the “Temple Of Rock” lineup include UFO‘s “Rock Bottom” and “Doctor Doctor”, MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP‘s “Armed and Ready” and “Into The Arena”, SCORPIONS classics “Another Piece Of Meat” and “Rock You Like A Hurricane”, plus new songs from the recently released “Temple Of Rock” album “Miss Claustrophobia” and “Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead”.
