Unbreakable is a music album by the Scorpions . It was released in 2004 on the Ariola label and is assigned to the hard rock genre. It is the band's 15th studio album and 20th regular album and was also the first album with Pawel Maciwoda on bass.

The Scorpions' motto of the world tour that followed in the same year was Unbreakable . Her stage program consisted to a large extent of songs from the album.

Music genre

In 2000, the Scorpions and the Berliner Philharmoniker released the album Moment of Glory , which was symphonic based on the arrangement. The following year the unplugged album Acoustica followed , which is another example of the band's change in style. Against this background, they returned to their original style with Unbreakable and let it "really crash" ( Klaus Meine ) with songs like Love 'Em or Leave' Em or Remember The Good Times in order to meet the expectations of their fans. In addition, ballads like Maybe I Maybe You can be found on the album .
