The New Roses Give Fans a Glimpse of Touring Life With “One More for the Road” (premiere)

It might be hard to imagine that one of the best American hard rock bands isn’t American at all. Based in Wiesbaden, Germany, the New Roses work elements of Guns N’ Roses, AC/DC, classic Southern Rock and even country music into songs such as “Every Wild Heart”, “Forever Never Comes”, “Life Ain’t Easy (For a Boy With Long Hair)” and the title cut from the quartet’s latest LP, One More for the Road. The video is a behind-the-scenes view of the group on and offstage, meeting fans, getting massages, walking off airplanes, tearing it up on the stage and, in general living the life of a hard-working rock ‘n’ roll band.

That work ethic also reveals itself in a round of upcoming road dates, including a healthy stint with the Dead Daisies and gigs on the upcoming Kiss Kruise 8. Set all that aside for a moment, though, and what we have is a rock ‘n’ roll tune that reminds us the music can still be pure, driven and capable of moving us at a basic emotional level. If there is really a renaissance of ’80s-style hard rock acts, the New Roses are definitely one of those acts leading the charge.

One More For The Road, out now via Napalm Records, may be ordered here.
