EUROPE’s place as a legendary classic
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, before going on hiatus between 1992
and 2003. They reunited and quickly settled into a period of re-establishment
which has seen them re-enforce their reputation worldwide as one of the premier
purveyors of blues-tinged classic rock with an edge and some kick. Their last
album, 2012’s Bag of Bones, saw EUROPE hit the UK top 40 rock
album charts and debut at #2 on the Swedish national charts.
War of Kings is set to take full advantage of
the global groundwork EUROPE have put in over the last few
years.
