SHARKS is an album by the British hard rock band UFO released in 2002. Album features longtime lead guitarist Michael Schenker.
Much to the delight of old-school headbangers, the classic lineup of one of the great bands of the 70's, UFO, regrouped in 1993. UFO's first new record since reuniting, 1995's WALK ON WATER, saw the quintet pick up exactly where it left off, not altering its formula much at all. The reunion (or at least the team of Phil Mogg and Michael Schenker) remained together for several albums afterwards. SHARKS sees bassist Pete Way return to the fold as well, and, unsurprisingly, "the song remains the same." The boys can still lay down a hard-rocking thumper with no problem (albeit in more of an obviously Bad Company-like style), especially on such standouts as "Serenity" and "Fighting Man."
