Modern metal unit GUNDRIVER is preparing to release its new album, "Give War A Chance", this fall. The record brings together a lineup of heavy rock and metal veterans: ex-RAINBOW vocalist Ronnie Romero, founding guitarist Tom Potter, drummer Alex Rivas (TEMPTING FATE), and former MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP bassist Rev Jones.
Rev Jones expressed enthusiasm about the project: "I had a blast being involved in this new GUNDRIVER album. It's great to play with Tom and Alex again." Potter described the sonic direction: "These songs are nasty! With the addition of Ronnie's vocals, the tunes are sounding exactly how we envisioned — straight-ahead metal with searing vocals."
The first single, "One Man Army", is set for release on May 21, 2026, with additional singles rolling out through the summer. Romero is well-known for his work with RAINBOW, MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP, and ELEGANT WEAPONS, while Jones has performed alongside Michael Schenker, Leslie West, and Paul Gilbert. GUNDRIVER blends classic heavy metal influences with contemporary aggression.
