Since forming in 2020, Swedish hard rock band Starmen have built a world where classic arena rock, melodic hard rock and larger-than-life imagery belong together.
Their fifth studio album, Starmenized II, arrived in November 2025, following Starmenized and the career-spanning The Best of Starmen – Volume 1. The album includes Trouble, 15 Minutes of Pain, One World and the newly recorded anthem Born to Rock.
Starmen are Kristian Hermanson – Starman Red – on lead vocals and guitar, Jonatan Samuelsson – Gold – on bass and vocals, Andreas Lindgren – Purple – on lead guitar and vocals, and John Hector – Silver – on drums and vocals. Starmenized II was produced by Hermanson and mixed and mastered by CJ Grimmark.
Retro? Absolutely. But Starmen aren’t interested in becoming a museum piece. This is classic hard rock made by people who still believe that a great riff and an enormous chorus matter.
