Added Nuclear Blast founder, owner and CEO Markus Staiger: “We’re so proud to welcome the greatest, most important and most influential German rock singer DORO PESCH to the Nuclear Blast Family. DORO has influenced our musical universe like no other! Back in the ’80s she already made history with Warlock, and ever since she’s been defending her undisputed title as #1. Her striking solo career is a victorious march and her live performance still fascinates.
