With a band history of 40 years MAD MAX LEGACY is taking you back into the golden age of 80ies rock music with the songs from their classic albums ROLLING THUNDER, STORMCHILD and NIGHT OF PASSION.
We write the year 1982. Bandleader Jürgen Breforth is thrilled by the „New Wave Of British Heavy Metal“ with bands like the early IRON MAIDEN, JUDAS PRIEST, SAXON or DEF LEPPARD. That was the starting point for Jürgen to found his own band, MAD MAX.
Right with their first demo (recorded in the rehearsal room of the band) MAD MAX secured a record deal with the famous dutch record label ROADRUNNER RECORDS (best known for the first METALLICA records).
The 1984 debut album „ROLLING THUNDER“ took press and fans by storm, not only in Europe but even in the USA, Canada and Japan.
Due to the huge success of the debut album MAD MAX toured with bands like URIAH HEEP, PRETTS MAIDS, STRYPER or NIGHTWING and played a lot of big festivals around Europe.
1985 the „STORMCHILD“ album was released followed by their masterpiece „NIGHT OF PASSION“ in1987.
„NIGHT OF PASSION“ included a cover version of „FOX ON THE RUN“ (from the UK band „THE SWEET“) . The MAD MAX version became a huge radio hit in Spain as the trademark song of a very popular spanish radio show.
Even in Latin America, especially in Brazil and Colombia, the band played some impressive live shows with all their classics.
