'Humanity - Hour 1' is the 21st studio album by the Scorpions and was produced by legendary star producers Desmond Child and James Michael in Los Angeles.
The album is a concept album based on a novel by Liam Carl that describes a war between humans and machines and deals with the overarching theme of humanity. Klaus Meine pursued a very modern sound in the production of the album, which should sound up-to-date without losing the Scorpions character, and in a way combines the sound of the early Scorpions with the production of the late Scorpions.
'Humanity - Hour 1' was remastered with special sensitivity from the original tapes and is now released as a 180g gatefold 2LP, pressed on gold vinyl.
