LATER SONS is the new band of former LIONCAGE musicians Thorsten Bertermann (v), Arvid Lukas (b, SHE BITES) and Bülent Sezen (d) as well as  Markus Knubbe (g, AVELON). Torsten Landsberger (ex LIONCAGE) is responsible for studio drums, songwriting, mix and production. You get melodic hard rock from Germany with some AOR ("Eye Of The Storm") but also rather contemporary rock sounds with powerful guitars ("Never Surrender"). Furthermore, there are plenty of cool hooklines ("Hometown Girl" or "Lady Luck"). A beautiful Artwork (Tim Eckhorst) is the icing on the cake here.

The LATER SONS are on a time travel through decades of rock and AOR from the eighties to today. They deliver songs with lots of hit potential and fine hooklines which do not sound dusty or old-fashioned. Actually, they sound exciting throughout the record. The compositions on “Rise Up“ meet a contemporary production and mix. Authentic sounds by authentic players and lovers of the rock genre. Experienced artists who know their business. Founding members are the former LIONCAGE musicians Thorsten Bertermann (v) and Torsten Landsberger (dr) who ignited the flame in late 2019 after the split of LIONCAGE. After several line-up changes on guitars foremost, today’s line-up is ready to strike.

The debut showcases the full range of rock and AOR influences of everybody involved. They represent a cool mixture of typical eighties stadium rock flavored with AOR and a slice of southern rock. The album was produced and mixed by Torsten Landsberger, except for “Follow Your Dream” which was mixed by Pete Woj and “Eye Of The Storm” which was mixed by Steve Hardy; mastering at Sterling Sound and artwork by Tim Eckhorst.
