U.D.O. - Touchdown 2-LP - Appears as a silver-colored Vinyl edition in a gatefold. He is one of the epitomes of international Heavy Metal : with his distinctive voice, Udo Dirkschneider has shaped legendary rock anthems since the 80s. With around five decades on stages around the world, he has become an icon. Despite the long history and the ups and downs that come with the rock life, Udo Dirkschneider always manages to astonish with his ever-changing story. And this year is no exception. On August 25th, the new album of his band U.D.O., 'Touchdown,' will be released. And once again, the name says it all. Just like the 'touchdown' in American football describes an important scoring goal for players and the team, it is the same for Udo Dirkschneider.
