Scorpions have released a video for When You Know (Where You Come From), a typically emotive power ballad from the band's new album Rock Believer. The album is out now. 

When You Know (Where You Come From) follows the release of opening single Peacemaker, which came out in November, and the album's title track, which was released in January

Frontman Klaus Meine says: “The new material sees us return to our roots. We simply wanted to reactivate the original Scorpions DNA – great riffs, strong melodies. We tried to transport that live feel to the studio with all five of us playing in one room again at last. Having [ex-Motorhead drummer] Mikkey Dee in the band is like a shot of fresh energy and real fun."

Scorpions will perform a nine-date residency in Las Vegas in late March and early April, while their European dates kick off in Portugal in May. Full dates below.
