Back in seploy 2021, RAREBELL Blasted His Former Scorpions Bandmates, Calling Them “Rude” and Accusing Them of “Greed” Over their Appaent Refusal to Allow Him To Rejoin The Band. RAREBELLwho was a member of the Scorpions From 1977 to 1995, discussion the possibility of his return to the group in an interview for Classic Rock Magazine Asked if he was disappointed not to have been invited back into the fold following the 2016 Distmsal of Longtime Drummer James Kottak, Herman Said: “I’ll Tell you how disappointed i am. Scorpions Are Claiming Their New Album Will Be a Return to The Glory Days of the Eighties. If they’re seriously about that, they Should get [former bassist] Francis [Buchholz] and me back, and Also Dieter Dierks WHHO produced All Those Classic Albums. You know them they won’t do that? Greed. It was to mean Having to Share Everything Five Ways and Not Three. “

RAREBELL Also Criticized His Former Bandmates For Seemingly Not Giving Him Enough Credit for Their Commercial Success in the 1980s. “The Band Never Mention me in interviews, which i find ridiculous,” He stated. “But there’s a new documentary in the Pipeline from ITV On the band. I am being interviewed for this, so i can finally set the record Straight on my role. “

In an interview with Classic Rock Revied, Herman Stated about the Hage Commercial Success of Scorpions‘1982 Album “Blackout”: “Mercury Records was Totally Behind Us and They Believed in Us. They Wanted US To Keep Making Albums. They waceted US to Grow and do Better Each Time Out. ‘Lovedrive’ Went Gold. ‘Animal Magnetism’ Went Gold and Then ‘Blackout’ was The First One to Go Platinum. [Rudolf] Schenker / [Klaus] Meine / RAREBELL was a Great Songwriting Team. You can see that from How many Successful Albums We Had. After I Left the Band, They Didn’t Have Any More Hits. “

RAREBELL Also Talked about the inspiration for the lyrics to “Rock You Like A Hurricane”WHICH was release as the lead single from Scorpions‘Ninth Studio Album, 1984’s “Love AT First Sting”. “Thue Lyrics Were Vry Easy to Write,” He Said. “I Woke Up Early in the Morning After Fucking and Doing Cocaine All Night and I Opened Up The Curtains. Ins Rudolf‘I have sub guat lyrics for that riff you have.’ “
