SCORPIONS have begun their final world tour with succesful shows in Prague & Moscow where songs from their new record (now available in Germany, March 22nd & 23rd worldwide) were debuted and well received. STING IN THE TAIL seems to be doing well in terms of chart places so far and reviews have been positive, it's certainly a cut above 'Humanity: HOUR 1, it's certainly a fantastic send-off from the teutonic heroes of metal. The album is hard, heavy, & melodic. Highlights include, 'NO LIMIT', 'RAISED ON ROCK' 'TURN YOU ON', 'LORELEI'...think CRAZY WORLD MEETS 1984's LOVE AT FIRST STING with a slight modern twist. This is pure SCORPIONS, don't expect an overnight sensation, this album takes time to grow, but in my eyes this is a sign of it's quality. Is it their best? No, is it worth it, ABSOLUTELY. It's a stronger record than Humanity or Unbreakable and probably their best since FACE THE HEAT. Buy IT, love IT and GET STUNG. A quality album to end their career with. "Hail! Hail The Sting in the TAIL!!!"
