Louder Harder Faster is the ninth studio album by American rock band Warrant, released on May 12, 2017. The album features original band members Erik Turner, Jerry Dixon, Joey Allen, and Steven Sweet along with Robert Mason on lead vocals for the second time, following on from their last album, 2011's "Rockaholic". This is also the first Warrant album to be released following the death of original lead singer Jani Lane.
The new album features 12 new songs including a remake of the classic Merle Haggard song "I Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink" as the first single and the 'Professional Bull Riders' new "party anthem". The official video premiered at an official kickoff party at St Louis in Ballpark Village on February 25, accompanied by a live performance. The clip was filmed in Anaheim and will be played every night at midnight in the seven PBR Bars across the country as a clarion call for the good times to continue.
"Only Broken Heart" was released as a single for the album on March 24, 2017 followed by "Devil Dancer" on April 4, 2017 and "Perfect" on April 21, 2017. The band also released the single and music video for the albums title track "Louder Harder Faster" on May 4, 2017.
Erik Turner stated, "You can hear and feel the emotions of the last 25 + years of being in this band poured into LHF. The fun and the frustrations, the pleasure and the pain... a whole lot of blood, sweat, tears and beers went into the making of this album. Love it or hate it, its the real deal, 100% pure melodic hard rock. Hand crafted by five musicians who dedicated their lives to music when they were just little kids with big dreams." Jerry Dixon adds, " 'Louder Harder Faster' is truly one of our best records to date. It has all the classic Warrant ingredients that people have come to know, plus a lot of extras that keep it in the modern realm of todays music. It's a perfect mix between Balls and Ballads. When we started this project over two years ago, we wanted to bring the listener back to the days of sitting in the living room and cranking up a record from start to finish. Making full records seems to be a lost art, we hope in some small way that this album helps people find that art again."
