(Review from allmusic, melodicrock.com)

After many concept albums and experimenting with different styles, Scorpions return to their original, more raw style of music with 2004′s Unbreakable.

The production strikes a winning balance between mid-’80s excess and tight nu-metal guitar, resulting in one of the heavier records they’ve done in quite some time. Singer Klaus Meine’s voice has aged gracefully, retaining the raucous snarl that fueled hits like “No One Like You,” while attaining a rich, fully rounded cadence on the beautiful new ballad “Maybe I Maybe You”.

Unbreakable was recorded live in the studio, and it shows on the brutal standouts “Love ‘Em or Leave ‘Em” and “Borderline” — the latter being one of the more inventive and memorable of their career.

The album features a varied range of tracks, which work together well. There’s the darker, modern rock of the opening tune New Generation, the more classic uptempo hard rock of Love Em Or Leave Em, Borderline and Blood Too Hot, the moody mid-tempo melodic rocker Deep And Dark, and the classy big piano ballad Maybe I Maybe You. The album closes with an aggressive rocker Remember the Good Times which is something a little different again.

“Unbreakable” acts as a bridge between hard rock generations, and is perhaps the first step in handing over their legacy to the myriad of young bands that have basked in the veteran group’s light for so long, but if they continue to make records as lively and skilled as this, that transfer could be a long time coming.
