 - Fourth studio album since 2010. 3 Original members, produced by Michael Voss (Vengeance, Michael Schenker,Gary Barden) . Guest musicians: Paul Shortino (Rough Cutt), Oz Fox (Stryper). Cover Artwork by Kai Brockschmidt (Royal Hunt, Pretty Maids, Pink Cream 69 etc..).

The term experience almost inevitably raises the question: What’s the significance of the album title? After all, the name Stormchild has come up before: 1985 saw the arrival of Mad Max’s album Stormchild, which has fuelled their fans’ requests to resurrect this character ever since. “Stormchild is our warrior who battles for everything good in the world, not with weapons but with rock songs. We had Kai Brockschmidt (Pretty Maids, Pink Cream 69, among others) update him for the new cover artwork and practically revived him,” comment Mad Max, forging an arc to the early days of their career.

A career which has recently featured an unusual project: the song ‘Ladies And Gentleman’ can be heard twice on Stormchild Rising, on the one hand a German version which Voss, Breforth & Co. recorded together with children’s song star Detlev Jöcker and students of a German music school in April 2020, releasing it as a single, and on the other the English-language original with that typical Mad Max attitude. Because that’s something their fans can continue to count on 100%!
