GOTTHARD - announce “More Stereo Crush” mini album & release lyric video for stomping new single ‘Ride The Wave’
Àðõèâ íîâîñòåé | Ðóññêàÿ âåðñèÿ
The track continues the way the group have taken with their 2025 milestone “Stereo Crush” (March 21 via Reigning Phoenix Music), and will surely sweeten the last weeks of the summer - and also above and beyond, of course!
Loosely yet boldly kick-started by massive guitar riffing and drums, the single brings an instant feel-good vision to the listeners’ minds: the sun is burning while you’re cruising through the desert or along the coast in your vintage cabriolet. With ‘Ride The Wave,’ GOTTHARD invite you to have the time of your life leaving all negativity behind and build on the life-celebrating momentum they’ve created on “Stereo Crush.” Turn it up!
“‘Ride The Wave’ went through a couple of versions and recording sessions before we finally found the right vibe for the album. It has this raw, old-school rock energy with gritty guitar riffs and a powerhouse vocal performance of Nic Maeder,” adds guitarist Freddy Scherer.

Set to make additional impact, the new song will also be part of GOTTHARD’s upcoming mini album, aptly titled “More Stereo Crush.” Further details as well as pre-order options will be announced later this year with even more new music paving its way. Stay tuned!
With their latest offering “Stereo Crush,” GOTTHARD reached the top of the official album chart for the 17th time (and for the 13th time in a row!) in their home country Switzerland. The band’s Austrian (#7) and German (#11) fan bases also gave them plenty of reason to celebrate.
“Stereo Crush” was produced, recorded and mixed by long-time producer Charlie Bauerfeind, who’s known for his work with the likes of HELLOWEEN and BLIND GUARDIAN, alongside co-producer and founding member Leo Leoni at Yellowhouse Studio. Mastered by Sascha “Busy” Bühren (TrueBusyness), artwork was once again provided by Thomas Ewerhard (AVANTASIA etc.).
