Norwegian hard rockers STARGAZER are ready to release their new single, “Trouble”, ahead of their upcoming European tour supporting Michael Schenker. With “Trouble”, the band unleash an explosive, larger-than-life arena rocker that hits with immediate impact. Driven by a thunderous, blues-soaked riff and a hypnotic groove, the track showcases the band at full force: bold, electrifying and built to shake walls. A powerful melodic vocal cuts through the roar, while the chorus rises like a battle cry, demanding maximum volume and repeat plays. “Trouble” captures Stargazer’s knack for combining classic hard rock power with modern punch, delivering a song that feels both timeless and stadium-ready.


“Trouble” is released as a bonus track connected to Stargazer’s latest studio album, “Stone Cold Creature”, offering fans an extra glimpse into the band’s current creative peak. Originally recorded during the album sessions, the track stands as a natural extension of the album’s raw energy, massive riffs and infectious melodies, reinforcing Stone Cold Creature as the band’s most explosive and confident release to date.





Hailing from Norway’s rich rock tradition, Stargazer has been a powerhouse of melodic hard rock since 2008, blending classic rock roots with a contemporary sonic edge. The band has steadily built an impressive catalogue with “Stargazer” (2009), “The Sky Is The Limit” (2019) and “Life Will Never Be The Same” (2023), each release refining their sound while staying true to the spirit of classic hard rock. Produced by Soren Andersen (Glenn Hughes, Electric Guitars), “Stone Cold Creature” delivers soaring vocals, piercing guitar solos and hook-laden choruses, positioning Stargazer as one of the most exciting names in modern hard rock.


Renowned for their dynamic live energy, Stargazer have shared stages with legendary acts such as Gary Moore, Saxon, Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Glenn Hughes, Wig Wam and Magnum. In 2025, performed at Norway’s Tons of Rock Festival, marking another major milestone in their ongoing rise. With “Stone Cold Creature” and the release of “Trouble”, Stargazer continue to prove that classic hard rock, when delivered with conviction and modern production, remains as powerful and relevant as ever.


“Stone Cold Creature” is out now in LP (black and transparent blue vinyl variants), CD and digital formats, via Mighty Music.
