It doesn't bug me all that much... Try listening to it loud(not cranking, unless you wanna) while your driving around town with the windows down. That might work. Scorpions - Sting in the Tail - Page 6 Icon_lol

They did the same thing with HUMANITY HOUR I for some odd reason.

Raised On Rock & Sting In The Tail are azz kickers IMO. To me they sound like early 80's era Scorps!

Me likey!

Seems to be a growing trend to drop snippets of the lyrics and that's it. I've noticed it happening more and more in the last few years (if the lyrics are printed at all). Most recently, Slash's album notes feature ONE LINE from each song.

I don't get it. As an artist, if I was going to take the time to write them, I'd want people to be able to read them and not have to go to some pop-up and banner infested lyrics website. Scorpions - Sting in the Tail - Page 6 Icon_lol

Just got it today at Walmart for $10. It sounds really good! I like the souvenier pick-card thing too...

I've been checking Pollstar, Ticketmaster and Scorps' sites in hopes they'll be coming to the Detroit area. GUESS WHAT !! They're hitting up DTE Music Theater July 1st! Scorpions - Sting in the Tail - Page 6 11840

At least... That's according to Pollstar. The band's own website and Ticketmaster don't mention the date but they are playing in Wisconsin on 07/02 so it seems possible. I emailed the tour contact they listed on their website in hopes of getting a confirmation. Where's that "fingers crossed" smiley? Very Happy

The store I checked at yesterday was actually sold out, may have to check Wal Mart today.

Really diggin' this new Scorps. Even the ballads are good. "Lorelie" is very German sounding.

It's not bad. But nothing stuck to me.

I'm beginning to start thinking it's me. Here are some albums I should have loved, but didn't.

Alice Cooper - Along Came A Spider
Rage - Strings To A Web
Saint - Hell Blade
Saint - Crime Scene Earth
Saint - Crime Scene Earth 2.0
Ultimatum - Lex Metalis
Overkill - Ironbound
Paradox - Riot Squad
etc etc

I think I am starting to dislike metal in general. Scorpions - Sting in the Tail - Page 6 Icon_redface

I think you need to take a break from it is all.

That is my impression as well.

And we all know how I feel about ballads.

I have to say, it's a great album. Raised On Rock is awesome but The Good Die Young is the best track.

The title cut is my favorite.

"Hail, hail...the sting in the tail!"
