Hailed by the international metal scene for their 2011 debut Man Or Machine (Sonic Attack Records) and for their celebrated appearances at various European festivals, ALPHA TIGER has quickly become one of Germany's hottest heavy metal newcomers. Due to epic compositions, catchy hooks and Stephan Dietrich's powerful vocals (which are reminiscent of QUEENSRYCHE's Geoff Tate and HELLOWEEN's Michael Kiske in their heyday), the band succeeded in living up to the positive feedback and is now ready to unleash their new album, Beneath The Surface! All lyrical topics on Beneath The Surface are represented in the stunning cover artwork, which was created by Hungarian designer Peter Tikos (who also worked with the band on the Man Or Machine cover).

Alpha Tiger: : Posts new video from in the studio

Century Media Records — Tue, 02 Oct 2012 12:30:57 GMT

Germany's ALPHA TIGER is currently hard at work on their new studio album, Beneath The Surface, which is set to be released on January 28th worldwide. With the album nearly finished, the band comments: "It took us most of June and July to record the album once again under the wings of 'Godi' Hildman in Berlin's Musicflash Studio. Peter Langforth [guitar] had composed the 9 new songs and the intro over the course of the previous 6 months and spent considerable time to put them all on 'tape' over a period of two months prior to entering the studio. To get a little impression about our work in the studio, check out the following studio-video here. Mixing and mastering is currently in the final stages. Andreas Hilbert, another sound wizard from Berlin's Musicflash Studio, is about to finish things at the beginning of October." The album's first single and video, "From Outer Space," will be released on October 26th shortly before the band goes on tour with metal beasts W.A.S.P. in Europe!
