Not that it’s a problem affecting Europe, with Joey Tempest still careening across stages with the poise and grandeur of a Swedish elk in rutting season.

No slowdown in the pace, indeed, no countdown for the Scandi-rockers, as evidenced by Trebuchet’s coverage of the band at Shepherd’s Bush Empire last summer clearly showed.

EUROPE’s place as a legendary hard rock band was platinum-stamped early in their career. Having enjoyed an explosive period of worldwide success in the ‘80s (under-pinned by their hit album and single “The Final Countdown”), 2015’s War of Kings has seen them take full advantage of the global groundwork EUROPE have keenly re-established over the last few years.

Recently, it was decided that EUROPE’s momentous live appearance at Wacken 2015 should not only be filmed and recorded, but released as a DVD & BluRay! EUROPE’s War of Kings Special Edition will include the original War of Kings CD plus said Wacken 2015 DVD & BluRay, and will hit stores in Europe on November 27th , 2015 via Hell & Back Recordings / UDR Music.

The set will come in three formats (2-disc Ecolbook CD+DVD, 2-disc Ecolbook BluRay+CD, Limited Edition Deluxe Package with War of Kings CD + DVD + BluRay and Photobook), and an audio-only edition of the Wacken 2015 performance will also be available via digital format.

Joey Tempest: “Very proud to have the War of Kings Special Edition coming out with our Wacken performance as bonus disc and of course our new video for the live version of ‘Nothin’ to Ya’. See you all on the road as the War of Kings tour continues!”
