Hello everyone.
For my 1,000th Forum post, I wanted to share that "Steelhammer" is now available for pre-order on Amazon.com. So far, they have the vinyl and the basic CD without any bonus material.
Here is the editorial description:
"2012 was a very successful anniversary year for U.D.O. and the way it was celebrated, with the release of Celebrator, the live record Live In Sofia and the whole back catalogue being available again as reissues, was definitely worthy of its occasion. It also shows that the band around Udo Dirkschneider still has its finger on the pulse of time and that a lot of fans are waiting for new songs by this legendary band. In May 2013 the wait is over and U.D.O. will deliver their next studio album. The title is Steelhammer and it is one of the most powerful outputs the band has created so far. Steelhammer marks a return to the band's roots, a return to real, organic drum sound and biting Metal guitars. This contemporary yet traditional mixture will definitely blow your mind."
Notice the reference to "real, organic drum sound" and "biting, Metal guitars."
I can't freakin' wait!

You can order the box set here... if you're fast enough A bit expensive though... Interesting that they talk about drumcomputers this broadly... I still remember that interview in which Udo himself said that they have never used drumcomputers...

Thanks for the info! But although the new album surely will be better than the last ones, I´ll wait to listen anything of it before buying

I think I'll wait and load up on merch at the show on April 21 rather than spend a $100 to preorder the fanbox. I wouldn't be able to wait that long to get my hands on the album anyway.

for a hundred bucks, it had better come with a personalized greeting from Udo on DVD and a $50 gas card!
