A NEW REVENGE features one of the finest voices in metal of all time, Tim "Ripper" Owens (ex-JUDAS PRIEST, ICED EARTH), one of the most versatile and name-checked guitarists in rock Keri Kelli (SLASH'S SNAKEPIT, ALICE COOPER, VINCE NEIL), legendary bassist Rudy Sarzo (OZZY OSBOURNE, WHITESNAKE, QUIET RIOT) and longtime SCORPIONS drummer James Kottak (also of KINGDOM COME)
Kelli says of A NEW REVENGE coming together: "Beginning the songwriting process, we said, 'Let's get together and come up with three or four original songs.' Without any pressure, just creating as we went. Finally, we got to the eleven songs we were all happy with. 'Here's To Us'was the first song we wrote for this record. It came very fast and was pretty simple to write. It's basically an ode to hard rock fans the planet over."
Kelli says of "Enemies & Lovers": "It's been a long time coming but it's completely finished — mixed, mastered and all ready to go. We all really, really excited to finally unleash this on the hard rock community."
A NEW REVENGE will hit the road across the U.S. in support "Enemies & Lovers" throughout 2019 and is looking at locking in a European tour later in the year.
Owens told RockEra Magazine about A NEW REVENGE: "It started as an all-star band playing songs from all of our careers. Then we wrote a CD and recorded it, and I can't wait to get it out." He described the band's musical direction as "just good old straight-forward hard rock."
PROJECT ROCK's touring lineup also included Teddy "Zig Zag" Andreadis (GUNS N' ROSES) on keyboards.
