MADSEN are on tour for the new album ‘Lichtjahre’ starting in November 2018! While reading this news, we recommend turning up MADSEN’s single ‘Rückenwind’ (engl. tailwind). Not only because you have to brace yourself with the massive guitar riff but also it will wake you up and grab your attention. Back in November, Sebastian Madsen announced: “We have a tailwind, we can go anywhere, we are fully tanked, raring to go and just waiting for you!” In other words: MADSEN will expand the tour in the autumn for their new album ‘Lichtjahre’. They recently celebrated with three club shows in Berlin, Bochum and Hamburg. Already at these shows it was obvious that a strong, amazingly rocky album is coming - again, what you expect from MADSEN. While softer German-language music makes in onto the radio, MADSEN have never denied their love for Alternative Rock - and at the same time coupled with tunes and choruses that shout “Hit! Hit! Hit!” It is exactly this mixture of well-measured hardness, strong lyrics and the love for melody that is relatively rare in the German band landscape. Take, for example, a song like ‘Sommerferien’, which will be released on June 15th. It will inspire the listener to euphoric dance, hands in the air and then even pull out the lighter for a few seconds. It would not surprise us if that happens in November, when the full-throttle truck tour finally starts and Sebastian will sing: “Ich warte eigentlich nur auf dich!” (“I’m waiting just for you!”)
Tickets for the tour will be available from Friday, June 1st, 10 am exclusively via eventim.de and via madsenmerch.de (hard tickets).
