HOLLYWOOD (November 9, 2006) – Platinum recording artist WINGER is releasing their first album in over a decade. The founding members of WINGER, Kip Winger (bass/vocals), Reb Beach (guitar), Rod Morgenstein (drums), have reunited for their forth record, which is touted as their finest album ever. WINGER is joined John Roth (guitars/vocals) a WINGER member since 1993’s “PULL” album and new comer Cenk Eroglu (keyboards/vocals).

Being the first WINGER album in 14 years it’s not what you would expect. "The new WINGER album" explains Kip, "starts where "Pull" left off and moves into new directions. It mixes some classic Hard Rock like VAN HALEN and early WINGER style, progressive and acoustic elements that may resemble GENESIS, MOTT THE HOOPLE or KING CRIMSON".

The album artwork is handled by Ethan Van Sciver - a renowned DC Comic book artist and penciler who has contributed (among others) to Cyberfrog, New X-Men, The Flash: Iron Heights and Impulse. The album art depicts our Militaries finest protecting with guardian angels that are representative of our prayers we send.

Currently, the band just returned form a highly successful European tour in October 06 in support of the European release and now WINGER is gearing up for a full blown USA Tour in early 2007 in support of the new Album.

Note the artistic way the one wing curves to parallel the curve of the sun.

See if it was Eddie in that uniform then we could have had Powerslave II.

oh .. my ... god ... that cover!
Incidently, Winger played Redbird arena at Illinois State U. when I was in school and the local tri-sigma sorority brought Kip back home with them and they took polaroids while he boned most of the house. A girl I worked at a pizza place brought said polaroids into work and damn if that wasn't up there in the most disturbing things I've ever seen ...

This article is about a musical rock group.

No way! That's my favourite kind of rock group!

(yeah, ok, I know, stonehenge.jpg - but that's not what I meant)

― StanM (StanM), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:49 (nineteen years ago)

that album cover is great.
subject matter and politics aside.
well composed, well executed, well colored, and evokes tiny angelic blowjobs.

(For some reason, this thread has got "Headed for a Heartbreak" in my head. I think I'll go listen to it.)

The album art depicts our Militaries finest protecting with guardian angels that are representative of our prayers we send.

"Everyone knows there is nothing stronger on God's green Earth than a US Army soldier."

That was the ~~slogan~~ statement on all the recruiting commercials between Smallville and Supernatural last night.
