Dirkschneider and The Old Gang will release its latest album this year.
The band made the announcement Monday through a news release, which stated the band plans to release the album, Babylon, this year through Reigning Phoenix Music. The album’s release date is under consideration as well as other details.
In anticipation of the album’s release, the group unveiled the album’s lead single, ‘It Takes Two To Tango‘ Monday, along with the song’s companion video.
The band addressed the song’s musical arrangement, video and lyrical theme in a prepared statement.
“‘It Takes Two to Tango’ literally puts the pedal to the metal, supported by a lyric underlining the aforementioned idea behind DATOG: the common joy of playing music!,” the statement reads. “A virtue that surely will also infect all the viewers of the supporting music video, which was filmed by RCN TV at the legendary Dierks Studios (Stommeln, Germany), where actually the full record was tracked. The concluding mastering was handled by guitarist Kaufmann at ROXX Studio (Solingen, Germany).
The statement continues, “‘It Takes Two To Tango’ is strictly speaking only half of the song title, as the lyrics go on to say ‘(But) It Takes Six To Rock’. “This motto says it all”, the group states and adds: “An absolute joint effort!”
