2023 is going to be a very busy year for south German based hardrock band CZAKAN!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the re-release of the much acclaimed Czakan debut-album\u00b4State of Confusion\u00b4 in February 2023, which was awarded record of the month in ‚Metal Star‘ when it was released the first time back in 1989 and sold around 25,000 copies in Germany at the time, the new record and therefore the first new release of Czakan within more than thirty years, is imminent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On April 14th the follow up \u201eUnreal\u201c will be in stores worldwide and feature 14 red hot new songs all composed by Czakan. And for sure – like it always has been – in the original Czakan line-up from 1989!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUnreal\u201d was produced and recorded by guitar wizard Oliver \u201aOG\u2018 G\u00fcttinger in the band owned Greenbox-Studios and mixed by keyboard player Tom Fein, who can look back at more than 20 years experience as a live sound engineer and technician for bands like \u2018Die Toten Hosen\u2019. He also did a great job for several years as first engineer at Horus Sound Studio Hanover for Guano Apes & The Donuts \u2013 the studio in which Czakan recorded their famous \u201aState of Confusion\u2018 album back in 1989. Assistant engineer at the mix for \u201aUnreal\u2018 at Greenbox was Oliver \u201aOG\u2018 G\u00fcttinger. OG created the complete artwork for \u201aUnreal\u2018 as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even with mastering, Czakan didn\u2019t change the winning team from \u201aState of Confusion\u2018 and used the help of Robin Schmidt with his 24-96 Mastering Studio in Karlsruhe again. Photo shoots for \u201aUnreal\u2018 were done by Thomas Zigann for \u201aArtist and People Photography\u2018 exclusively. Lorenza Maluku from Curacao did a great guest job with singing backing vocals on \u201aBreaking all the Rules\u2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With \u201aUnreal\u2018 Czakan were holding all the keys. You can feel this strategy in each and every song. Starting with the rocking opener \u201aFree Line\u2018 \u2013 which will be the first single and video of the album \u2013 up to the final – the potential hit \u201aShow me all your Love\u2018 – everything sounds as all of one piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will be several live shows throughout this year as well. Be sure not to miss them! Czakan are back, stronger and more creative than ever. A storm is brewing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
