Face the Heat

Scorpions

A heavier, darker turn for the German legends. Gritty nineties production meets political urgency and down-tuned riffs without losing the stadium-sized hooks.

September 10, 1993 · Phonogram

A heavy, socially-conscious intensity balanced by moments of cinematic, dark-edged melody.

Moments Worth Listening For
the menacing, industrial-tinged opening riff of Alien Nation that signals a departure from their eighties glam roots
the massive, multi-tracked vocal hook in Under the Same Sun that recaptures their anthemic power ballad mastery
the unexpected sitar textures and Ebow layers on Woman providing a psychedelic, dark blues atmosphere
