74-Year-Old KLAUS MEINE Believes 'There's Plenty Of Gas In The Tank' For SCORPIONS

Earlier this month, SCORPIONS singer Klaus Meine was asked by Greece's RockPages.gr how much "gas is left in the tank" for him and his bandmates after more than five decades of rocking as a group. He responded: "We played almost 30 shows now this year after two years break because of the pandemic. And I think there's still a lot of gas in the tank. When you imagine that we went through shows we did in the U.S. and now all over Europe, it looks like there's plenty of gas in the tank. It feels good."

This past May, Meine, who turned 74 that same month, told Portugal's "Metal Global" that there is no more talk of retirement for the SCORPIONS, as there was back in 2010 with what was purported to be a final album and a farewell tour that never quite took hold. "No, we scratched that word [retirement] out of our [vocabulary]," he said. "It's not there. We don't think about it and we don't talk about it and we take it as it comes.

"Who would have thought two years after the pandemic… The pandemic is not gone, unfortunately, but two years after this long, long break… We played the last show before we started [our residency] in Las Vegas on the 5th of March, 2020 in Singapore; that was the last show," he continued. "So it's scary. We never had such a long break. And then all of a sudden you're back in front of an audience, in front of the fans. But then you know it feels so good, and it still feels so good after all these years.

"We're just growing older and we do what we do and we hope our fans enjoy it as much as we do," Klaus added. "But who would have thought we're still around after celebrating 50 years of being recording artists — our first album came out in 1972 and now 'Rock Believer' looks like it hits the big time with the fans and so many positive reviews from all over the world. And after all these years, who would have thought? And it's a wonderful thing.

"But all we know is [that] the road ahead is way shorter than what's behind us. And we never take it for granted —we never take success for granted. We work hard on what we do because we still love it and we still enjoy it. But it's what it is. And I think every artist knows what I'm talking about, because to go out there, play a great show for the fans and not let 'em down, it takes a lot of preparation, takes a lot of work. And being the singer, you try to make sure your pipes are in a good condition.

"It's a lot of things," Meine said. "And we don't know what the future will bring. Take a look at the next corner, and you never know what's going on. But right now, life is good. We have a great new album out there. And we have a lot of fun. We enjoy it."

Meine previously discussed SCORPIONS' aborted retirement in a 2018 interview with SiriusXM. "The thing is we have a much different view now," Klaus said. "And it's a young generation — that's the fuel that keeps us going, and it's really motivating.

"To be honest, every other year, you take a look around the corner: 'Can we do this?' 'Can we still deliver on the same high level, the way we used to do it?'" he admitted. "And that's the only way, and it's only fun if you can go out there and play a great rock show, wherever you do it. Like in the last couple of weeks, we had so much fun. But then you get sick on the road, like I did last year with the severe laryngitis. What can you do? There's not a chance. And then sometimes, of course, you ask yourself, 'How long can we do this?' Especially for singers — and I know I'm not the only one. But it's always, sometimes you ask yourself, 'Klaus, c'mon, how long can you keep up this level?' And then you go out there, everything feels good."

Circling back to SCORPIONS' 2010 "farewell tour" announcement, Klaus told SiriusXM: "Of course, we had our moment of doubt when we said, 'Okay. Maybe we should retire. Maybe this is a good moment.' And then we realized we were wrong, because there's still a lot of sting in the tail, so to speak, and it still feels good. There's such a demand for the SCORPIONS, and we're one of the few bands who play this global stage. If there wasn't this kind of demand, of course, there's no point after so many years, and you'd better go, 'Well, I go home and take it easy.' But there's such a strong demand and that really feels good and challenging — it's a challenge. Of course, you don't do it for the business. It's a good business, yes, but you don't do it for the business and for the money — you do it for the fun, you do it for what's inside of you, what's in your blood, what's in your veins, and that's the rock and roll music. And you wanna go out and play in front of an audience, because that's what it's all about."

SCORPIONS' latest album, "Rock Believer", was released in February. The LP was recorded primarily at Peppermint Park Studios in Hannover, Germany and was mixed at the legendary Hansa Studios in Berlin, Germany with engineer Michael Ilbert, who has earned multiple Grammy nominations for his mix work with producer Max Martin on albums by Taylor Swift and Katy Perry.

SCORPIONS originally intended to record the new album in Los Angeles with producer Greg Fidelman, whose previous credits include SLIPKNOT and METALLICA. However, because of the pandemic, some of the initial work was done with Greg remotely, after which SCORPIONS opted to helm the recordings themselves with the help of their engineer Hans-Martin Buff.

.....ослиной мочой разбавленного

Красауцы!

Пашке нужно много стараться, чтобы не отставать от остальных участников? Да его басюковые партии вообще ни о чëм по большей части. По-моему он не шибко старается при их сочинении. Так, максимально скучно в бочку играет или в рифф и всë.

Klawd Air, Соглашусь. Вот вроде сто лет тому назад уволенный Бухольц тоже не играл ничего сверхъестественного, а большинство его партий идеально вписаны в композиции и слушаются с удовольствием. А этот товарищ какой-то басист-невидимка. Причем, что удивительно, на концертах тоже. Его как бы и нет совсем.

Alex Chernyatinsky, Твоя правда. У Скорпионов с басистами обычно порядок полный был всегда. Тот же Рикерман отличные партии сочинял, Pure Instinct тому прямое доказательство. Но Павел... есть мысль, что он в группе для того, чтобы основной костяк участников (Матти, Руди, Майна) ещë сильнее выделялся. В музыкальном плане ровно тому же служит. В его случае бас, это очень странный предмет: бас вроде есть, а вроде и нет. С другой стороны постоянные барабанщики после ухода Германа были видными участниками. Да, Коттак в плане игры не мастер на все руки и ноги, но шоу выдавал будь здоров, а о Микки я вообще молчу. Он и стучит очень круто, и в плане зрелищ силëн.

Вы так говорите про отсутствие баса, будто это что-то плохое. Множество групп не используют бас, как играющий яркими красками отдельный, самобытный инструмент, и от этого их музыка не становится менее значимой. Это их сознательный выбор, выбор принимающего решения костяка группы, что бас должен быть именно таким - а вовсе не следствие непрофессионализма или пофигизма басиста (ага, кто бы позволил самовольничать басистам в группах подобного уровня). Сама суть музыки такая, и уж Шенкеру явно виднее, какими должны быть басовые партии в его музыке. С трудом представляю, как в песнях Скорпов зазвучали бы Харрис или ДиМайо (равно как и в Мановаре с Мейденами - Мачиводу или там Яна Хилла).
