Twelve albums now for this German hard rock outfit. 'Headstrong' is arguably the band's best record in years. It's the typical power arena rock sound we've known and loved, but a little heaviness on the back end to propel it further. "Walls Come Down" is a rigid groove highlighted by David's soulful voice and harmonized chorus piece. It's the centerpiece of a solid full-length effort. While vibrant and very much alive in 2017, the partnership with Italy's Frontier Records should see the band more active as time goes on. Note the album comes with a live album packaged as disc two for physical media.
