Europe confirm 10th studio album

Europe have revealed details of their 10th studio LP.

War Of Kings will be released on the 6th of March via UDR Records.

Says frontman Joey Tempest of the new album: “War Of Kings is the album we wanted to make ever since we were kids, listening to bands like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath. After hearing producer Dave Cobb’s amazing work for Rival Sons we simply had to work with him. Our adventure is still on!”

He goes on to admit that the band have had a tough mountain to climb since their 80s heyday: “We took the long road. But we wanted to re-establish Europe the proper way. It’s taken 10 years, but we’re finally getting there and we’ve done it our way. It’s getting harder and harder to be modest and humble about this band!”
