Rock ignition the greatest hard rock of the 21st century


Rock Ignition is a hard rock band from Germany founded in 2006 by professional dancer and ex-Kamelot background vocalist Heather Shockley and Silent Force/Sons of Seasons/Headstone Epitaph bassist Jürgen Steinmetz. In 2007 they signed a deal with Rock Inc.(Netherlands)and released their debut EP, "I Can't Resist". The band is influenced by hard rock acts from the 1980s like Skid Row, Whitesnake, Bon Jovi, Mötley Crüe, and Vixen. The very first guitar player of Rock Ignition, Bas Maas, is now the actual guitarist of "metal queen" Doro Pesch.
