Didn't they do a farewell tour already?

Also holy shit Scorpions have been around for 50 years?

What the fuck 50 years? The earliest album I can find is from '72 which is 42 years. I suppose they could've formed 8 years before and just goofed off for a while. Either way, damn!

I see they've took the AC/DC route and put the word "rock" in every other song title.

why does every so–called hard rock band have to put the word "rock" in every freakin' song title? This is exactly how you ruin
the rock spirit, which after the latest AC/DC album has been already seriously compromised (even if they've being doing that
for many years honestly)... Damn, this is going to suck badly.

Scorpions formed in 1965, though they were a cover band for a few years.

I've listened to a leak of that first single, it's preeeeeetty average. An over-produced, grandiose anthem... And yes it has the aforementioned abuse of the word "rock". Tbh I'm not too hopeful for this album

They had such an amazing 70's run, even Scorps' 1980's albums were awesome. But now they should just call it a day, Sting wasn't great but it was a nice swansong.

The Best Is Yet To Come is incredible. These boys sure do know how to write a ballad.

Yeah, they have some amazing ballads. Still Loving You and No One Like You are some of my favorites.
