New UDO album: Rev Raptor

I don't own every UDO, some have been a little boring to me. But when he's on he rips.

UDO's new single Leatherhead will be released on April 8th.
Can't wait

Any release date yet?

The new CD is out tomorrow!

I hope i can get my copy soon. So far, i like what i heard on You Tube

This album is GREAT! Never thought I'd say that about an UDO album. I am really liking this. The title track kicks your head in! Theres a few filler songs to me, but it still gets a good rating in my book!

That's awesome news. I'm still awaiting my copy. Can't wait to have it

Anyone know that the title Rev-Raptor refers to? I know i read about it somewhere, but can't find it again.

Thanks! Yeah, I remember now.

This album is amazing.

Tracks like Rev Raptor, Dr Death and Renegade are instant headbangers.

I read so many negative reviews on this album, most of them focusing on the fact that UDO delivers nothing new.

But who cares? I love UDO because i know in advance what his albums are gonna sound like and what i'm gonna get: good old headbanging heavy metal.

Ult, you'll love this album

Rev-Raptor is a cracking album.

I had blood of the nations by Accept as my album of the year for 2010 and I think this is it's equal. As well as the usual assortment of heavy metal anthems and superb ballads I am loving the production on this album far more than the previous two albums which I thought sounded a bit muddy. Plus their seems to be more solos on this album than the previous two.

Wish Udo would visit the uk on tour

Rev raptor is better than Dominator! youll love it ult!

Funny you should say that. I snagged a copy at Hasting's last night and will be jammin' it today on my way home from work. I need some metal to keep me sane in the 5:00/rush hour traffic!

This is exactly what you need. We'll be awaiting your feedback

It sounds like U.D.O.! U.D.O. has long been one of my favorite bands. I like the songs on "Rev-Raptor" and Sir Udo sounds great as always. My only real complaint is that it has that cold, mechanical and very digital sounding guitar tone. I think it would be a far better album with a heavier, warmer guitar tone and less digital recording. I'd be willing to be that not a single amp was ever set up to record this album. The entire thing was done digitally.

I agree, it has quite a mechanical sound, unlike albums like Holy and No limits.

But it's UDO

I'm officially addicted to this CD. Can't get it out of my car CD player.
