The Hellacopters celebrate new album release

The wait is over, today, 31st January, finally sees the release of Overdriver, the fantastic new album by high-energy rock'n'roll royalty, THE HELLACOPTERS, who are commemorating their 30th anniversary as a band with their ninth full-length.

The successor of their glowingly praised, chart-storming comeback album, Eyes of Oblivion (2022), is filled to the brim with roaring guitars and earth-shattering grooves, fist-raising energy and anthemic choruses, while keeping the variety richer than ever before. 

Singles such as 'Leave A Mark', and the instant hits '(I Don't Wanna Be) Just A Memory' and 'Do You Feel Normal' have only shown a small part of the stylistic range you can find on Overdriver. With fast-paced bangers like 'Wrong Face On' and 'Faraway Looks', THE HELLACOPTERS even nod to their early days. 

In celebration of its release day, a full album stream of Overdriver is now available on YouTube. Go check it out below and turn the volume all the way up: https://youtu.be/zM7DrKMmXCw

THE HELLACOPTERS have also released the focus track 'Don't Let Me Bring You Down'. 'Don't Let Me Bring You Down' is the second track found within Overdriver.

THE HELLACOPTERS will play a couple of release shows in Sweden, Finland and Norway, most of which are already sold out. Their guests will be the Swedish rock band Spiders. More headline shows in Germany and Denmark, with support by legendary US rock'n'roll heroes Supersuckers, will follow in April, as well as a few selected summer festival shows later in the year.

ABOUT THE HELLACOPTERS
Less than three years after their triumphant, chart-storming comeback record, Eyes Of Oblivion, which entered on #1 in their home country, on #3 in Germany, and on #6 in Finland, Sweden's most consistently great rock outfit is back with another banger of an album called Overdriver, due out on January 31st, 2025.

In the meantime, THE HELLACOPTERS have celebrated their triumphant return by playing a show with the mighty Iron Maiden in Gothenburg in July 2022, and gigs with Ghost in Germany in June 2023, apart from their own string of headline shows throughout Europe. Eager to keep the rock flowing, February 16th, 2024 saw THE HELLACOPTERS release not one, but two stunning versions of their classic Grande Rock album, which was originally released in 1999. Grande Rock Revisited included a remastered original version and a remixed and partially re-recorded version as a companion piece, showing how the album could have sounded in a parallel universe with guitarist Dregen being in the band at the time. After making rock grande again, the group set sights on new material, debuting the phenomenal single 'Stay With You'  in May 2024 and releasing it as limited 7inch via Lightning Records.

Their ninth full-length Overdriver was recorded at Strawberry Studio & The Honk Palace and is the first THE HELLACOPTERS album entirely produced by Nicke Andersson. As you might expect from a THE HELLACOPTERS album it's filled to the brim with roaring guitars and earth-shattering grooves, fist-raising energy and anthemic choruses, while keeping the variety richer than ever before. The striking cover for Overdriver was created by German illustrator Max Löffler.
