“War Of Kings“ 6th Anniversary

“War Of Kings“, Europe’s tenth studio album recorded at the brand new PanGaia Studios in Stockholm, was released on March 2nd, 2015 via UDR Records. Joey Tempest: “We met Dave Cobb and he wanted to become more of a band member. He was co-writing on four or five tracks and getting very involved. But everything happens very fast for us when we’re in the studio. The only thing we want to do is make it honest, raw and organic. We rent a lot of old gear to warm things up. We want it to be a classic sound. We think drums, guitar and so forth can only be recorded one way - really great - which was [what was] done at the end of the 70s, early 80s and then everything went sort of crazy. But, we sort of, we’re digging deeper in that sort of thing - classic, a little bit of classic rock, a little bit of emotion, a little bit of soul and blues and that comes after all these years of touring I guess.“ Track listing: - War of Kings - Hole in My Pocket - Second Day - Praise
