After releasing five singles to enormous critical acclaim resulting in over 1,6 million Spotify streams, numerous sold out shows and in excess of 400 000 views on YouTube, Hardcore Superstar have now unleashed their highly anticipated new album Abrakadabra. Already hailed as a contender for album of the year by numerous magazines and reviewers, this is uncomplicated, Rock N’ Roll escapism and entertainment at its best!
Building on the momentum and huge success of their 2018 album “You Can’t Kill My Rock N’ Roll” the band were inspired and enthusiastically started writing songs for Abrakadabra whilst still out on tour. Connecting with so many fans, old and new helped to influence the shape and sound of the new record and the decision was made early on to once again work with Johan Reiven, who was responsible for production duties on the bands ‘Black Album’. Adde states:
“Working with Johan was like stepping back in time, there’s a shared intensity and commitment to excel that collectively drives us and ultimately brings out the best in us all… this feels like the record we should have released after the Black album”
The result is an album containing 10 hard hitting songs exploding with riffs, attitude, intensity and that magical feeling you get when work is over and the weekend is here. This is an album for the fans and best shared with great friends, cold beers and very loud speakers!!
The Swedish four piecehad the balls to marry two styles that grew up hating each other. We’re talking about Thrash Metal and Sleaze Rock. The former hard, aggressive and ugly, the latter catchy, melodic and decadent. So what should they name this bastard child?–We play ‘Street Metal’offers drummer Magnus ”Adde” Andreasson. Thrash and sleaze both come from the gutter. They wear big sneakers, they are a bit stupid and they both read pulp fiction. I can’t believe that nobody brought them together before.
