Swedish rock’n’roll powerhouse THUNDERMOTHER is set to unleash their thrilling first live album, Live’n’Alive. Their first album in collaboration with Napalm Records is out digitally on April 17, 2026!

Founded in 2009 by guitarist Filippa Nässil, the band is known for their electrifying rock anthems and relentless touring – live highlights include supporting the legendary Scorpions both in North America and Europe, playing the KISS Kruise and performing regularly at major festivals such as Wacken Open Air. In 2025, THUNDERMOTHER unleashed their highly acclaimed sixth album Dirty & Divine, which hit the top 2 on the Official German Rock/Metal Charts. Following that first release with the new lineup consisting of Filippa Nässil, vocalist Linnéa Vikström Egg, returning bass player Majsan Lindberg, and drummer Joan Massing, was a European headline tour, during which Live’n’Alive was recorded – this hefty 19-track offering showcases THUNDERMOTHER’s explosive live energy through their 2025 setlist.

Along with the announcement comes the first groovy single. The new live version of “Whatever” was recorded during THUNDERMOTHER’s show in Gothenburg in October of 2025, during the second leg of their “Dirty & Divine Tour”. Originally released on their self-titled third album, Thundermother (2018), this track is a fresh take on one of the band’s biggest anthems. Fans get to dive into the energetic performance with an accompanying live video. Additionally, “Loud and Free – Live in Cologne” (Black and Gold, 2022) and “Speaking Of The Devil – Live in Huskvarna” (Dirty & Divine, 2025) are also available to stream now.

Filippa Nässil about “Whatever – Live in Gothenburg”:
“‘Whatever’ is dear to our hearts, as it’s a song we’ve played at every gig since its release in 2018. It’s one of my all-time favorite songs to perform. The live version differs from the studio recording, featuring a longer, four-on-the-floor guitar solo. The war against drugs continues—you don’t need drugs to be rock ’n’ roll, but you DO need adrenaline!”

Live’n’Alive cuts through the band’s catalogue, delivering high-energy live versions that encapsulate the band’s true rock’n’roll spirit, from powerful reimaginings of classic THUNDERMOTHER hits to newer tunes. Anthemic opening track “Can you feel it – Live in Cologne” (originally from the newest studio offering) kicks the album right off, followed by equally energetic “Loud and Free – Live in Cologne” (from Black and Gold, 2022 – #6 on the Official German Album Charts!). Further highlights include the groovy “Whatever – Live in Gothenburg” (originally from the 2018 album Thundermother) as well as the catchy “Speaking Of The Devil – Live in Huskvarna” (from the 2025 album). THUNDERMOTHER wraps the album up impactfully with a new version of their biggest hit “Driving In Style – Live in Huskvarna”, originally from the 2020 success record Heat Wave (#6 on the Official German Album Charts).
