After the hard-hitting title track “Streets of Fire”, German heavy rockers MOTORJESUS are back with another explosive single: “Return to the Badlands” is out now on all digital platforms — accompanied by a brand-new music video that once again captures the full energy of the track. Filmed & edited by Frank Stellmacher (Accidentally Good Productions)
Frontman Chris comments:
"Return to the Badlands is a classic Motorjesus track that really brings out our hard rock roots from the glorious 80s – crack a beer, turn it up loud, and enjoy the ride!"
With “Return to the Badlands”, MOTORJESUS deliver another relentless neckbreaker that showcases their signature blend of dirty rock’n’roll, classic heavy metal, and a healthy dose of punk attitude. The track is another fiery taste of the upcoming album “Streets of Fire”, set for release on July 18th, 2025 via Reaper Entertainment.
Produced by metal legend Dan Swanö (Opeth, Edge of Sanity, Dissection), the album features 13 powerful tracks packed with high-speed riffs, heavy grooves, and 80s-inspired energy — the perfect soundtrack for headbangers and gearheads alike.
This fall, MOTORJESUS will hit the road with the “Streets of Fire” tour, bringing their high-octane rock to clubs and festival stages all across Germany!
