2006 - What a year for MAD MAX! It all started in January with the highly acclaimed „Night of white rock“ album seeing the band return in the original line–up with Michael Voss (Silver, Casanova; vocals, guitars), Juergen Breforth (guitars), Axel Kruse (Jaded Heart; drums) und Roland Bergmann (bass, vocals) followed by a German tour with the classic rock heroes DEEP PURPLE und ALICE COOPER. But this was just the beginning. In may MAD MAX started a 2 week European club tour with JADED HEART and PAGANINI and also were on the bill of the sold out UNITED FORCES OF ROCK festival at Rockfabrik/Ludwigsburg. Early October the band released “In White”.This 6 track EP presented old and new MAD MAX songs in acoustic versions and very emotional arrangements.

In mid October the MAD MAX songwriting team Michael Voss (music) and Juergen Breforth (lyrics) packed their bags again heading out to a nice little finca on Mallorca/ Spain. In this lonely place they wrote 10 brandnew songs that ended up on the “White sands” album. The songs are unusually heavy for MAD MAX and bring back the vibe of the classic MAD MAX vintage guitar sound. No keyboards used at all this time! There is still the Christian direction of the band but there are also songs like “Little princess” dealing with child abuse and “War”, the heaviest song MAD MAX has ever written. MAD MAX are not only rocking harder than ever before, they definitely have something to say and they say it loud and clear! Furthermore songs like “Family of rock” and “We fight in white” are showing that the band has grown to a strong unit after this intensive year with lots of shows all around Europe.

The new songs will have their live premiere on a large european tour as “special guest” of AXEL RUDI PELL starting on january 30th 2007.
Due to a MAD MAX festival show in Rome/Italy the photoshooting for “White sands” took place in front of the historic Colosseum!
