RAGE 'The Price Of War 2.0' (Official Video)

Rage are back from the Corona crisis with a double bang: as had already been rumoured behind the scenes, guitarist Marcos Rodriguez has left the band. To replace him, vocalist/bassist Peavy Wagner has welcomed two new stringsmen to the Rage fold. New addition Stefan Weber (ex-Axxis) was introduced to the public at the METAL HAMMER online show in early May, now the band has presented its second new member, Jean Bormann (formerly Angelic, Rage & Ruins). Alongside Peavy, drummer Vassilios “Lucky” Maniatopoulos continues to be part of the group’s permanent line-up. Peavy: “We’ve wanted for some time for Rage to be a quartet again, with two guitarists the way we operated back in the days of Black In Mind and End Of All Days. After Marcos had returned to Tenerife and consequently was no longer available, I used this opportunity to enlist two young guitarists.”

The full new Rage line-up can be seen and heard for the first time in the ‘The Price Of War 2.0’ video clip, a new edition of the song from Black In Mind, scheduled to be released on 12 June 2020 on all important online channels. Peavy: “As you can tell from the clip, Stefan and Jean complement each other perfectly. They’re both young and bring a lot of fresh energy to the band. We consciously chose this number for the video because we also wanted to revitalise the sound of the Black In Mind era. The track was cut practically live for the clip, with only a few overdubs added. Rage will sound as heavy and punchy as we do on that song.”

The fact that Rage are already busy working on new material proves just how well the new line-up has gelled on a musical as well as a personal level. Says Peavy: “As we’re not in a position to do any shows for obvious reasons at the moment, but the guys are bursting with energy, we’re using that momentum to work on new ideas that will probably be ready for release next year.”

New Line-Up:
Peavy Wagner – Bass, Vocals
Stefan Weber – Guitar
Jean Bormann – Guitar, Backing Vocals
Vassilios “Lucky” Maniatopoulos – Drums

Finally! I awaited patiently... for 21 years. Though this may be _The_ _Price_ _Of_ _War_ _2.0_, this is _My_ _Rage_ . 🤘

[snaggletooth]

Круто!! Одна из любимых песен на "Black In Mind". Rage Rules!!!

[TrueMeltal]

How much I love this new incarnation. The soul is safe. Great job guys !

[conaly]

I was a bit shocked when I learned, that Marcos is not part of the band anymore. He was like the perfect fit and he was one of the nicest dudes I've ever met.

Anyway, nice that you keep rolling forward and keep rocking now with four musicians on stage! When I think of the greatest albums of all times, 'End of all days' will always come to mind first. For me it is a solid 12/10 and to this day probably the only album for me, that I would consider truly perfect. Thinking that this album was made with two guitarists, I am full of hope that you can once again make an album with an unprecedented impact! Rage on and can't wait to see you on stage.

[mikedervos]

Ohh!! Huge line up change! Marcos had some awesome riffs! Hard to continue and do again a masterpiece like "the devil strikes again" i will miss him..

[overlord]

Amazing Rage once again! The guitar duo seems to fit very good

[flingar]

Loved the video. I miss Marcos he had a very unique sound but let's keep in mind that we can't judge the new members before we listen to some new material. And it won't be a question of technical prowess, at this level that's something that goes without saying, it will be more about sound, taste and melodic ideas. We will see...

[Vntilator]

Rage is my wife's favourite band, and Marcos were great. I said for years. Rage is not the same without dual guitars. Marcos will be rembered as a killer single guitarist. We have seen Rage live two times Marcos.

[rubicube]

This is on a whole other level! you can feel the synergy

[СаняСаня-эщы]

Бля, вернуло меня назад в далекий 1995 год, я в 8 классе школы в далекой Мурманской области!... Даже немецкие машины пахли тогда по особому, это было десятилетие пика качества немецкой техники и конечно музыки, она звучала 2020 год, немецкие машины пластмассовое гавно с дермантиновым салоном, музыка дерьмо собачье.... Спасибо пиви! Ты порадовал меня 38 летнего старика и вернул меня в детство, когда я слушал" Black in mind", на кассете в папиной новой audi A6 в 45 кузове. Настоящие вещи они не забудутся никогда!)))

[andyniederberger]

Ich habe die live am Urrock gesehen...grandios voller Energie und Power

[diegofernandoavilavalencia]

great to see Peavy is back. Somehow, it is, after all, rather strange having back two new stringmen in the lineup.

[lesspainlesss]

I know its too early, but can't wait for a new album..🤘

[thorstenhenkelmann]

Peavy ist auf Zack - so schnell zwei neue Jungs am Start !! 😮

Die Neuauflage von "Price Of War" gefällt mir! Zumal BLACK IN MIND mein All time favorite RAGE Album ist. 😊👍👍

\m/😎\m/

[Pfaeff]

Great video. I love all the props and details.

[satanicbudda]

Two guitarists!!! This is gonna be awesome

[heavyherti]

Sooo geil! Rage, Helden meiner längst verlassten Jugend bis heute! Never too old for Metal!🤘

[Vntilator]

I have seen Marcos 2 times live and miss him, but i also missed the dual guitars in RAGE.

Lyrics
Rage - The Price Of War

When the world's gone mad compassion dies.

Soldiers killing for their thrills,
making war just for the sake of war.
There's no future left than death.

Leave me be - misery!

Weep with the children and stave with the prisoners
before you scream for revenge.

Sorrowful women with tears in their hollow eyes -
this is no justice, this is the price of war.
The price of war

Some came running to the military,
misled by a false ideal,
believing guns could solve a problem, still
blind to see they only kill.

Ripped off from the middle,
ripped off from head to toes.
Ripped off - multikilling,
ripped off - guts and bones.

Weep with the children and starve with the prisoners
before you scream for revenge.
Sorrowful women with tears in their hollow eyes -
this is no justice, this is no justice.
You'd watch the dying, lay hands on their bleeding wounds
before you scream for war, don't you scream for.
This is no justice, this is the price of war.

Two guitarists to be able to make the sound of Marcos Rodriguez, I really miss his charisma style and his choirs are really needed in the bamda hopefully he returns.
