 BNR Metal Pages -- Scorpions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
One of Germany's oldest and most well-known metal bands, the Scorpions didn't really achieve worldwide fame until their second decade of existence, with songs like "Rock You Like A Hurricane" catapulting them into the spotlight.
Actually they are probably the oldest metal band period, having been formed way back in 1965 (!) by guitarist Rudy Schenker, who along with vocalist Klaus Meine remain the only two remaining original members from their first release, 1972's Lonesome Crow.
While albums such as Animal Magnetism, Blackout, and Love At First Sting represent the familiar mainstream Scorpions sound, their work in the 70's was a bit different (and arguably heavier and better), with then-guitarist Ulrich Roth's overt Hendrix stylings and less poppy songwriting giving the band a different feel.

When the work in their own Scorpion Sound Studio was completed, they went to Holland's renowned Wisseloord Studios, where they recorded further tracks with producer Keith Olsen (Whitesnake, Foreigner) in December '95 and January '96.
Michael Schenker (Rudolf's brother, a founding Scorp who left in the early '70s to join UFO) had filled in on "Love Drive" after Uli Roth's 1978 departure; Michael was, in turn, replaced by Matthias Jabs, who joined long-standing members Meine, Rudolf Schenker, bassist Francis Buchholz, and drummer Herman Rarebell.
Klaus explains: "The album was almost finished when Rudolf and I were invited to take part in a songwriting workshop on Bali in November of last year.
