German stadium rockers KISSIN’ DYNAMITE return with their eighth full-length, the aptly entitled Back With A Bang, out July 5, 2024 via Napalm Records! Founded as a teenage school band in 2007 and equipped with an authentic 80s stadium rock attitude, KISSIN’ DYNAMITE have performed at countless major festivals internationally, opened for acts such as L.A. rockstars Mötley Crüe and played massive sold-out headline tours. KISSIN’ DYNAMITE’s booming career has seen several high chart entries, with the latest studio album and Napalm Records debut Not The End Of The Road (2022) impressively climbing to #2 on the Official German Album Charts. Moreover, the rock formation’s catchy hits have made it to #1 on the Rock Radio Airplay Charts several times, and the multi-million-times streamed band has gained over a million views on each of their most popular music videos.

Now, KISSIN’ DYNAMITE release their promising new offering Back With A Bang, once again recorded and produced by singer Hannes Braun (Südland Music). The album was mastered by Grammy-nominated mastering engineer Robin Schmidt (24-96 Mastering).

Explosive title track “Back With A Bang” kicks the party right off, setting the scene for an album full of stadium rock anthems in true KISSIN’ DYNAMITE manner. Incredibly catchy following track “My Monster” is a guaranteed future radio hit, while uplifting “Raise Your Glass” is filled to the brim with nostalgia. Epic guitar riffs and true rock vocals on the dark rock number “Queen Of The Night” and “The Devil Is A Woman” persuade. To wrap up the album, KISSIN’ DYNAMITE shows their versatility and emotional side one last time by bringing it down for the beautiful closing track “Not A Wise Man”.

With their exciting, multifaceted 12-track offering, KISSIN’ DYNAMITE is indeed Back With A Bang, serving the best of modernized stadium rock with their guitar-driven anthems, loaded with hit potential and designed for huge stages.

Track Listing:

1. Back With A Bang
2. My Monster
3. Raise Your Glass
4. Queen Of The Night
5. The Devil Is A Woman
6. The Best Is Yet To Come
7. I Do It My Way
8. More Is More
9. Iconic
10. Learn To Fly
11. When The Lights Go Out
12. Not A Wise Man

Album off to a good start IMO with Raise Your Glass!

Watched the premiere. Picking up right where they left off with "Not the End of the Road" IMO. They've nailed their formula... just huge sound on the choruses.

Matching, let alone beating the last album is a tall order though.

Agree!  They just have a knack for creating interesting, catchy, hook filled tunes.   

That last album might possibly be my favorite album of the last 5 years if I were making a list.  It's just held up really well for me and I still play it often.

Tall order for sure but off to a good start!

As Dan says above, matching their last album is going to be a hell of a task, as it was a brilliant album and one of the best of that year by far. This is a good start though...reallly looking forward to hearing it all

The drummer doesn't want to commit to the image? Seems odd to be the only one.

The song is about the band's early days and they're wearing wigs looking like their hair back then. The drummer is the only one who wasn't there from the start so they just made him look a bit younger (with the cap). 

I really like the band and the song and I think this is one of the best bands Germany has to offer. Though their songs are never surprising.

Ah. That makes sense. 

This track sounds immense. Let's hope the rest of the album follows suit.

Ah, I love it. If they carry on like this, the videos will soon be more elaborate than the tracks.

It's a pity that the album won't be released until July.

The definitely do put some nice effort into their videos.

Yeah, that release date feels like it was a little farther out than necessary.  I feel like early June probably would've been fine to still allow plenty of promotion time and a few singles/videos.

I guess I get it though.  It seems like albums die and get forgotten pretty quickly these days so the best way to give it legs is probably doing a slow burn with getting songs out there before ultimately releasing the album.

Sorry for my off-topic question. :offtopic:

As someone who is not a native English speaker, I don't understand your 2/2 or 2 of 2.
What does that mean? I have found various references via Google, but none seem to fit here.

Is this used like a rating, in the style of 10 stars out of 10 stars? Just wondering...

He means that both songs released so far were great. So two out of two were good tracks.

      I hate that Collective Soul is considered alternate. When they were popular they were promoted as active rock, which I'm not sure what that is but it sounds a lot closer what they do than alternate rock. To me, alternative is REM and Pavement and the like.

      The reason I mentioned Alter Bridge and Scott Stapp's solo stuff is because I don't think it's too far off from Creed. Myles Kennedy obviously has a more dynamic voice than Stapp but musically they're very similar. At the end of the day as I've said I love this site and if Dan decided to strip it down to the bare bones and build a site from the ground up starting with Journey and Poison and I would still support it.

      I get the idea of keeping the site pure but if you look at the genres of music on HH listed on the site not even all of them fit into the AOR/Melodic Rock sub genres and if you submit a cd there's even more categories. If the site was strictly AOR & Melodic Rock it would still be an amazing database but it's also, sleaze, glam, southern rock, blues rock, hard rock and modern hard rock and there's a lot more to those genres to explore.

      My two cents... This site's database was probably the single biggest factor in me getting into the AOR/melodic rock subgenre, and I was like a kid in a candy shop for a while because I knew *almost* every artist on here would appeal to me and fit what I was looking for. Finding new music you enjoy is one of life's greatest pleasures and for a while this site was my go-to. I'll always be grateful to Dan and the rest of the contributors for that. That being said, I worry that it will lose a lot of that appeal if it just starts adding a bunch of artists that play rock music but do not fit in the AOR/melodic rock subgenre. There are a few bands on here that are already pushing it and if every artist with two guitars and a big snare drum gets admitted, what's separating this database from any other? We are all fans of a type of music that is quite "niche" these days but that's what makes the site special. tl;dr I vote no on all of them. I vote no on Creed twice.

      There is always gonna be a fine line between what is an is not gonna cut the mustard on here. As I said before, Cornell is an amazing singer and the stuff he did with Audioslave was certainly deserving of a place on the site as there was so much 70s hard rock/metal to their sound. But Soundgarden certainly does not fit beyond a few songs here and there. And his solo stuff is all over the place genre wise. His James Bond theme, you know my name is one of my favourite hard rock songs of all time and if he had released a whole album in that style, I would whole heartedly support that being on the site, but as much as I really like his Carry on album, it just does not belong here. And I would be really against stuff like Pearl Jam and Creed not because I flat out hate them, but just because I don't think they really fit. There are bands I love I would not want on here, and there are bands I hate who I fully support them being on here (The Darkness for example). The other thing to consider, as it was mentioned by someone, it does not matter if certain members of a band have albums on here, that does not mean there other bands belong on here. Audioslave yes, Soundgarden and RATM, no. Scott Stapp (can't really comment) but Creed, no. Mother Love Bone, yes. Pearl Jam, no. And with some of the other bands mentioned, like The Cars. It's a slippery slope, as where do you stop? Should Dire Straits be on here? Bruce Springsteen? Huey Lewis? Mellencamp? All artists I really like, but don't think they have a place.

      Really looking forward to a couple of upcoming releases as well. Maverick is sounding promising, and most hyped for The Warning as all singles released from that so far have been top notch. Plus there is the new Rolling Quartz EP on the horizon.
