CoreLeoni led by Gotthard founding member Leo Leoni, have announced the release of their new studio album Generection, set for release on September 11 via Reigning Phoenix Music. Marking the band’s fourth album since its formation in 2017 and the second featuring vocalist Gent BushpepaGenerection sees CoreLeoni returning to their roots with their heaviest and hardest-hitting record to date.

Built on a foundation of unreleased tracks, the album showcases the powerhouse lineup of Alex Motta (drums), Mila Merker (bass), and Jgor Gianola (guitars), standing as unshakable pillars of the band’s sound.

While heavier and harder than its predecessors, Generection never sacrifices warmth or atmosphere, especially in its most intimate moments. With the entire band contributing more to the songwriting than ever before, the result aligns perfectly with Leo Leoni‘s unmistakable signature sound.

Generection is available for pre-order now: https://coreleoni.rpm.link/generectionPR

Of all the tracks on Generection, “Generation Rock” best captures the album’s generational spirit. The riff cuts like a knife, while the breakneck rhythm will have neck muscles tensing in anticipation of the inevitable headbanging.

Blending raw power with analog warmth, the song unites distant generations through a shared musical dream. The common thread is music itself, as Leo channels timeless emotions that still burn close to the heart. This first single perfectly embodies the album’s concept: just turn it up!

Generection – Track-list:
1. Last Goodbye
2. Generation Rock
3. Howling At The Moon

6. Vision
7. Rock’n’Roll Rebel

The analog mix is one of the defining characteristics of Generection, recreating the magic of ’70s and ’80s recordings while injecting a modern edge. Razor-sharp riffs, driving rhythms, and just the right touch of sweetness and dimension make this an album that opens a door to the past for younger listeners while reconnecting older rockers with their roots.

Since launching CoreLeoni in 2017, Leo Leoni has built the project into a celebrated hard rock force that bridges generations. With Gent Bushpepa once again delivering a commanding vocal performance and a band firing on all cylinders, Generection stands as a powerful statement of intent, honouring classic rock traditions while pushing confidently forward.

The Digipak CD edition also includes a bonus disc featuring the “Live At Hallenstadion” concert, recorded in Zürich, Switzerland, in July 2025 and previously available only as a digital release.

Silent night, ROARING night! CORELEONI loudly toll the bell for the festive season with their brand new digital offering: Live at Hallenstadion Zurich is out now via PERCEPTION – A Division of Reigning Phoenix Music, and available for streaming on several platforms.

Following two singles – “Sick & Tired” & “Like It Or Not,” both taken from their first original album III [2022] – the international lion pride’s focus lays on a classic track today. “Firedance” is one out of seven GOTTHARD songs CORELEONI performed on July 3, 2025 for this release and kick-started the final third of their energizing set with unrivalled joy of playing.

“This is one of the most important ‘first GOTTHARD era’ songs: it’s a heavy and melodic mid-tempo track recalling strong 70s and 80s vibes. ‘Firedance’ delivers great vocal and musical parts, accompanied by one the heaviest and funniest guitar solo, which was catapulted into live heaven on this recording,” adds guitarist Jgor Gianola.

As an additional appetizer, the multi-national quintet of Albanian vocalist Eugent Bushpepa, GOTTHARD’s very own Leo Leoni and Jgor Gianola on guitar, Mila Merker on bass, and Alex Motta on drums, have now launched their second single “Like It Or Not”. This track perfectly captures the group’s approach to both songwriting and live performance: CORELEONI give their all, and it’s up to the listeners whether they “Like It Or Not.” True to form, their hooks remain irresistibly catchy.

Jgor Gianola confirms“This song seems to be born for live performances, groovy and heavy.”
