The album, which is titled \"I\'m Back\", is sure to please Rarebell\'s longtime fans as it features a broad scope of catchy new rock songs, as well as a new version of the classic Scorpions hit Rock You Like a Hurricane, a song that Rarebell co-wrote with fellow Scorpions members Klaus Meine and Rudolf Schenker. The album will see a 2007 release through a label which is yet to be determined.
In addition to the new album and tour, Rarebell is also completing an autobiography which will see a release in 2007. Titled \"My Life as a Scorpion\", the book will shed light on Rarebell\'s life in the Scorpions, as well as feature photos from his personal collection.
