Brainstorm Brings Classic Mettle to Don Henley's 'Boys Of Summer'
Southern German heavy/power metallers Brainstorm continue their momentum from their 2025 album 'Plague Of Rats', with a creative take on the classic track 'The Boys Of Summer'.
The song was recorded during the band's 'Plague Of Rats' sessions in 2024, and its release comes at a fitting time as the group embarks on the final stages of this year's festival season.
Lead vocalist Andy B. Franck notes that despite the nostalgic themes evoked by the original song, 'The Boys Of Summer' is a timeless track that continues to evoke great memories for him and fans alike.
'This song still has the power to stir emotions, even today,' Franck says. 'It's a testament to the enduring legacy of Don Henley and the Eagles.'
With Brainstorm once again pushing the boundaries of their music, fans can expect a unique metal interpretation of this classic track that will surely leave lasting impressions.
Beyond this release, the band is committed to extending their 2025/2026 'Plague Of Rats' touring cycle and has announced additional live dates, including their participation in the upcoming Summer Breeze Open Air festival in Dinkelsbhl, Germany. Fans are eagerly awaiting more updates on the band's performance schedule.
