Karlsruhe, Germany-based hard rock band Pink Cream 69 have released a video featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the making of their latest album Headstrong, which can be viewed below.
Pink Cream 69 issued 12th full-length studio album Headstrong on November 10th, 2017 through Frontiers Music Srl.
The album came with a bonus disc featuring songs recorded live during the band’s show at Rockfabrik in Ludwigsburg, Germany on September 11th, 2013.
Bass player and producer Dennis Ward commented: “When we released our first album in 1989, we were proud to be a ‘guitar band’ that yielded powerful guitar riffs and soaring vocal melodies. Since the release of Ceremonial [January 2013] it became evident to us that we had to take a step back to be able to make two steps forward so we made a ‘master plan’: resurrect our earliest form of songwriting incorporating these riffs and melodies, reducing the amount of keyboards and keeping the production to a minimum of sonic layers in order to be as true as possible to our sound – the sound of fat and crunchy guitars.
“I feel that the new album is a high-energy recording that redeems us as the powerful rock ‘n’ roll band we used to be. After weeks of cross checking the production, listening to the CD in my car, I take great pride in saying ‘mission accomplished’. We look so very forward to presenting our new ‘baby’.”
