HARDCORE SUPERSTAR: 'Split Your Lip' Artwork Unveiled

October 13, 2010

Swedish sleaze rockers HARDCORE SUPERSTAR will release their new album, "Split Your Lip", in Europe on November 26 via Nuclear Blast Records (except in Scandinavia, where it will be made available through Gain Records). The CD's first single, a two-side split featuring the songs "Moonshine" and "Guestlist", will be made available in early November exclusively with Sweden Rock Magazine.

Check out the album artwork below.

Commented drummer Magnus "Adde" Andreasson: "The original idea for the cover was to have a sexy woman to scratch a mans back but when we later on had a dinner/sauna/drinking session while listening to the new album it took another direction. We were all in the sauna with a boombox blasting out the song 'Split Your Lip' when our dear friend Biffen (roadie for IN FLAMES, THE HAUNTED, ENTOMBED and many more) pulled up his arm to do the universal sign of licking someones pussy. Our record boss, Markus Tagaris of Gain Records Sweden, immediately picked up the idea of having that sign on the cover."

"Split Your Lip" was recorded over a five-day period at at Bohus Sound studios in Kungälv, Sweden with producer Tobias Lindell.

"Split Your Lip" will feature the following tracks, among others:

* Last Call
* Sick As A Dog
* Won't Be Bullied
* Sadistic Girls
* Lowlife
* Beat On The Bully
* Party Ain't Over 'Til I Say So
* Here Comes That Sick Bitch Again

Video footage of HARDCORE SUPERSTARvocalist Joakim "Jocke" Berg and guitarist Vic Zino performing an acoustic version of a brand new song, "Here Comes That Sick Bitch Again", on Sweden's TV4 can be viewed below.

HARDCORE SUPERSTAR re-released two of their albums — "Hardcore Superstar" (2005) and "Dreamin In A Casket" (2007) — on October 16, 2009 via Nuclear Blast's "Reloaded Series." Both reissues contain bonus material such as demo tracks and rehearsal takes.

HARDCORE SUPERSTAR's latest studio album, "Beg For It", was released on June 5, 2009 via Nuclear Blast Records. The LP's title track, which was released as the CD's first single, was certified gold in the band's home country after entering the national chart at position No. 5.
