Blind Ego | The Hunting Party

Release 18 October 24

BLIND EGO is back! The guitarist of the German flagship art rock band RPWL Kalle Wallner has made good on his promise and recorded a new album. Compared to his main band RPWL, “The Hunting Party” pushes the pedal down considerably in favour of rock and metal elements. The new album is his fifth studio album since his debut in 2007. He also released a live album in 2017 and his “almost-instrumental” album “Voices” under his own name in 2022. Wallner never seems to run out of ideas or the desire to produce – despite his main band RPWL, his own label Gentle Art Of Music, his recording studio and many other projects as a producer and guitarist.

The tour for the last album “Preaching To The Choir” was not under a good star. For many fans, these concerts in spring 2020 were the last immediately before the coronavirus lockdown and the last concert experiences for many months. All further BLIND EGO concerts were also cancelled, bringing the project to an abrupt halt. However, Wallner was by no means bored. Together with drummer Marco Minnemann, he produced his personal “coronavirus instrumental album” called “Voices” in lockdown, with just one song sung by Arno Menses (Subsignal).
