Dirkschneider has unveiled their latest single "Winter Dreams", featuring a powerful collaboration with metal icon Doro Pesch. Released on February 6, 2025, the track serves as the second single from their upcoming "Balls To The Wall Reloaded" album, offering a fresh interpretation of the classic Accept song.

The collaboration brings new energy to "Winter Dreams" while honoring its original spirit. Released through Reigning Phoenix Music, the track has already achieved commercial success, landing at #189 on the Germany iTunes Top Songs chart. Udo Dirkschneider's passion for the re-recording project shines through, with RPM's managing director Jochen Richert highlighting how these reimagined versions stand shoulder-to-shoulder with their 1983 counterparts.

Dirkschneider, established in 2015 by former Accept frontman Udo Dirkschneider, continues their mission of celebrating Accept's musical legacy. The current lineup features Udo Dirkschneider on vocals, Peter Baltes on bass, Sven Dirkschneider on drums, Andrey Smirnov on guitar, and Fabian "Dee" Dammers on guitar. This release follows their January collaboration with Sabaton's Joakim Brodén on "Balls To The Wall," building momentum for the upcoming album.

To commemorate the album's release, Dirkschneider will embark on the "Balls to the Wall 40th Anniversary Tour 2025," launching in Vienna, Austria, and Munich, Germany, on February 26 and 27, respectively. The tour promises to showcase the entire album live, delivering an electrifying celebration of these timeless tracks. Tickets for the European tour dates will be available from July 26, 2024.
