I haven't listened to their actual stuff for 30 years but this one rocks for sure.

The legendary Scorpions have set a Feb. 25 release date for their newly announced 19th album, Rock Believer, and have released "Peacemaker," the first single from the upcoming full length that will be the successor to 2015's Return to Forever.

The fact that new music from the 50-plus year veteran group would be coming was no secret as Scorpions had kept fans updated on their progress, which included the release of the inspiring new track "Sign of Hope" last year and, over the summer, the band shared rehearsal footage of a new song "Seventh Son."

Speaking about the new single, singer Klaus Meine revealed, "The first thing that came to my mind was the hook line — 'Peacemaker, peacemaker / Bury the undertaker.' I was just playing around with those words. At a time when so many people have died and are still dying of COVID, from devastating wars and other senseless crimes, it makes you feel that the undertaker must be working overtime. In a peaceful world after the pandemic, it will be time for the peacemaker to rule... that's an image that really appeals to me."

Weirdly when I read the news about this single it says it was the UK bonus track, and I got the 2CD version and it certainly was not on that. Checked the single CD listing and not on that either. Turns out it was a vinyl only track.

I hate this shit with a passion. Back to the days of never getting everything because CD, vinyl and digital might all have extra tracks, and that doesn't even include Japanese releases.
