EUROPE Complete First Demo Session For New Album

October 28, 2005

EUROPE drummer Ian Haugland has posted the following message on the group's official web site:

"Last weekend we all got together for the first demo session of the next EUROPE album. It was very exciting to start working on the new songs, and we really had a great time in the studio. Many strong ideas came up over the weekend.

"The next EUROPE album is expected to be out in 2006."

EUROPE's forthcoming live DVD, entitled "Live from the Dark", is scheduled for release on November 18 through Mayan, a subsidiary of Sanctuary. The two-disc set will feature the group's November 15, 2004 concert at the Hammersmith Apollo in London, England along with video clips, interviews, band information and a section called "Taxi Diaries." A teaser clip for the DVD has been posted online at this location.

EUROPE's "Start from the Dark" album (available in the U.S. via Friday Music, Inc.) was the group's first collection of new material since 1991's "Prisoners In Paradise". "Start from the Dark" was produced by Kevin Elson, who had previously worked with EUROPE on their multi-platinum 1986 release, "Final Countdown".
