The Hellacopters: il video di ‘The Electric Index Eel (Revisited)’ e i dettagli della ristampa di “Grande Rock”

I The Hellacopters hanno pubblicato il video di ‘The Electric Index Eel (Revisited)’ e annunciato i dettagli della ristampa di “Grande Rock”, in uscita il 16 febbraio per Nuclear Blast.

Comunicato stampa:

Le leggende svedesi dell’action rock THE HELLACOPTERS hanno annunciato la data di uscita della tanto attesa ristampa fisica del loro classico album Grande Rock del 1999, che non era disponibile in vinile da oltre 20 anni. Questa nuova edizione di Grande Rock uscirà il 16 febbraio 2024, in edizione 2LP, 2CD e digitale, e conterrà sia l’album originale rimasterizzato che una versione rivisitata e remixata con chitarre aggiuntive di Dregen, oltre a percussioni e pianoforte aggiuntivi e nuove tracce vocali. Proprio come l’edizione originale del 1999, l’edizione in vinile contiene esclusivamente la cover dei Venom “Angel Dust” come bonus track.

DIGITAL ALBUM
(the digital album will have a reversed order of “Grand Rock Revisited” followed by “Grande Rock (remastered)”)

Swedish high energy rock and roll band THE HELLACOPTERS released their eighth studio album titled Eyes Of Oblivion on April 1st, 2022.

It marked the first full-length since the release of their temporary farewell record Head Off in 2008, and was met with massive acclaim from fans and media alike. Charting #1 in Sweden, #3 in Germany, #6 in Finland, the band celebrated a triumphant return culminating in a show with the mighty Iron Maiden in Gothenburg in July 2022, and gigs with Ghost in Germany in June 2023.

On February 16th, 2024 they will now release not one, but two stunning versions of their classic Grande Rock album. Entitled Grande Rock Revisited it has been remastered by Henke Jonsson, and furthermore has been completely remixed by Michael Ilbert at Hansa Studios, Berlin using the original multi-track tapes and reanimated with a whole lot of additional layers of rock!

The result showcases how the record could have sounded in a parallel universe with Dregen being in the band at the time, and with a more balanced mix, something the band had been pondering about for quite a while. “We all love loud guitars”, Nicke explains, “but not at the expense of drums and bass, which is pretty much the gist of the original mix.

It’s ALL guitars”. So whether you do not want to spend way over 100 Euro for one of the rare original LPs or are excited to hear a revamped, re-rocked new mix of Grande RockGrande Rock Revisited gives you both plus a double-album-cover design by singer/guitarist Nicke added as visual treat on top. THE HELLACOPTERS make Rock Grande again!
