RAGE To Release 'The Devil Strikes Again' Album In June
German metallers RAGE will release their brand new studio album called "The Devil Strikes Again" on June 10 via Nuclear Blast. The CD was recorded in September/October 2015 at Megafon Studios (Burscheid, Germany) and at Soundchaser Studios (Zandhoven, Belgium). The production was handled by Marcos Rodriguez and Peavy Wagner, while Dan Swanö (MARDUK, OPETH, DISSECTION, KATATONIA) took care of the mixing and mastering at Unisound Studios (Grefrath, Germany). The cover artwork was created by Karim König.
Commented RAGE bassist/vocalist Peavy Wagner: "Here comes RAGE's hardest record in years! The title says it all, and we have captured the band's unique spirit of our classic works. The cover reflects the music — hard and straight!"
"The Devil Strikes Again" will be made available as a 3CD digipack (limited to 1,000 copies; Nuclear Blast mailorder exclusive), 2CD digipack, and 2LP (black, white). All editions contain six bonus tracks (including three cover versions: "Bravado" by RUSH, "Slave To The Grind" by SKID ROW and "Open Fire" by Y&T). The 3CD digipack also features a bonus live CD from the latest European tour with HELLOWEEN.

RAGE released a four-track EP on January 22 to coincide with the band's tour with HELLOWEEN.
"My Way" contained four tracks, including two re-recorded versions of songs from RAGE's 1995 album "Black In Mind" and a brand-new song in both English and Spanish.
"My Way" was the first RAGE release to feature the band's latest additions, Marcos Rodriguez (guitar) and Vassilios Maniatopoulos (drums)
Marcos Rodriguez was born in Venezuela and currently resides in Antwerpen, Belgium. The guitarist is a die-hard fan of RAGE who met Peavy on RAGE's 30th-anniversary tour when his band SOUNDCHASER provided support on parts of the trek. Vassilios "Lucky" Maniatopoulos has so far primarily made an appearance as the vocalist of the band TRI STATE CORNER. However, the former drum student and drum technician of former RAGE and current TRI STATE CORNER/REFUGE drummer Christos Efthimiadis is also longtime friend of Peavy's.

Да, звук на епихе слабенький, но зато название какое многообещающее! И лого под BlackInMind'овское стилизовали... Хотелось бы верить, что Rage вновь вернутся к около-thrash'у.

Еще бы соизвоили на обложку потратить чуть больше пары долларов и бутылки пива, было бы вообще заебись. А об альбоме буду судить только когда выйдет, хотя в последнее время Рага послабела конечно.
The Missing Link был потяжелее и с одним гитаристом. На Black In Mind гитары стали потише. Но я только за второго гитариста, хотя бы для концертов, очень не хватает ритм гитары во время соляков
