Humanity: Hour I

Humanity: Hour I is the sixteenth studio album by German hard rock band, Scorpions. "The Cross" features vocal contributions from Billy Corgan.

Humanity: Hour I generally received very good reviews. AllMusic called it a "perfect balance between nu metal guitar crunch and '80s heavy metal melodies" and lists "The Cross" as one of the suggested tracks.

Background
Corgan has expressed his fandom of Scorpions, particularly the song "Dark Lady" which he said influenced "Tarantula" off of Zeitgeist. In fact, Humanity: Hour I was recorded at roughly the same time as Zeitgeist, both at The Village Recorder, and this is possibly how the collaboration came to be.
