HARDCORE SUPERSTAR: New Video Interview With JOAKIM 'JOCKE' BERG

July 9, 2013

Anna Dave Bertram of Sweden's Access: Rock conducted an interview with vocalist Joakim "Jocke" Berg of Swedish sleaze rockers HARDCORE SUPERSTAR before the band's July 5 performance at the Metaltown festival in Gothenburg, Sweden. You can now watch the chat below.

HARDCORE SUPERSTAR's "C'mon Take On Me" video was once again directed by René U Valdes and produced by Greenworks Television.

"C'mon Take On Me" is the title track of HARDCORE SUPERSTAR's new album, which was released in Europe on March 1 via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2010's "Split Your Lip" was produced by the bandmembers themselves and mixed by Randy Staub (METALLICA, MÖTLEY CRÜE, THE CULT).

"C'mon Take On Me" was made available as a CD in slipcase, as a digital download, on black vinyl and on strictly limited pink vinyl (only available at the Nuclear Blast mailorder).

Commented HARDCORE SUPERSTAR drummer Magnus "Adde" Andreasson: "We came up with the idea [for the 'C'mon Take On Me' cover] during the recordings of the album. It's just so sexy when a woman jumps into a drum kit — what could be more exciting? We discussed the concept with photographer Micke Johansson, who loved the idea. What we especially like about it is the combination of sex and bruises!"
