Arjen Lucassen's Supersonic Revolution - The Glamattack (Official Lyric Video)

Pre-order: https://lnk.to/SupersonicRevolution

Here it is… always very scary for me… the first single and videoclip of my new band Supersonic Revolution called ‘The Glamattack’! Please let me know what you think of it in the comments below. Can’t wait to read it since this is a new band that I’m very proud of, so… very curious!

This song The Glamattack is about the rise of glamrock in the early seventies with acts like T Rex, Sweet, Alice Cooper and David Bowie. Back then I wanted to BE these artists! I even remember stealing my mother’s wig and singing into a hairbrush in front of the mirror. I really loved the theatrics and the outrageous image of these glitter bands; they were about more than just music.

This video was made by Dave Letelier, and for me he really captured the colorful vibe of the early seventies. Yeah sure… it’s totally over-the-top and excruciatingly colorful, but that’s what this band is all about… MORE = MORE 😊

The Glamattack - LYRICS

Action! Get down, get with it!

seventy-one, time for a change
the hype is on, it’s shocking and strange
he takes the stage, sky in his hair
hot love in the air – everywhere

four London lads, living their dreams
they start a band, as sweet as can be
raising hell, outrageous and wild
leave the sixteens behind – in style

hairspray and make up, satin and gold
platform heels and you’re good to go
outfits of silver, outshine the sun
The glamattack is on

out of the dark with blackened eyes
the king of shock took the world by surprise
electric chairs, spiders and snakes
rock will never be the same – again

crimson blaze crossing his face
we were told he came down from space
thin and white, red spikey hair
no one out there compares – I swear

slap on some lipstick, highlight your hair
You’re defined by the clothes you wear
splash on some glitter, show us no fear
The glamattack is here

No one to turn to, not a friend in the world
Just me and my shadow, ignored by the girls
I put my headphones on and dream away the days
One day it’s me up there shining on that stage
