Starmenized II on CD

Swedish melodic hard rockers Starmen are back with their fifth studio album, Starmenized II, set for release in late 2025. Following the success of 'Starmenized' (2023) and the career-spanning compilation 'The Best of Starmen - Volume 1' (2024), the band now digs into their vault: "We had so many great songs left from the last album that it would have been a waste not to release them," says bassist Jonatan Samuelsson (Gold Starman). Alongside these unreleased gems, the album includes a brand-new song, 'Born to Rock', written and sung by Samuelsson. The rest of the album's tracks are primarily written and sung by Kristian Hermanson (Red Starman), the band's frontman, rhythm guitarist, and main songwriter. 'Starmenized II' continues the band's tradition of well-crafted arrangements and explosive energy, blending melodic hooks, powerful riffs, and a timeless retro vibe.
