Scorpions guitarist Matthias Jabs said the band in the process of working on their 19th album and the hope is to have released by the fall of 2020. He went on to say:“We've been writing some material before we went on tour this summer, so we have songs – about 10, I guess – but we will have to do some more writing once this tour is over, and then prepare for the rehearsals and recordings right after our shows in New Zealand and a couple in Asia.”
