Century Media Records reports:
Greek melodic metal outfit FIREWIND has been extremely busy touring worldwide in 2008 while delivering their ?The Premonition? album as well as their first ever DVD release ?Live Premonition?. In 2009, the band will continue to please it's dedicated fan-base and mainman Gus G. is glad to give you the following update on Firewind's upcoming activities:
"?Even though we toured the UK hard in 2008 and are still planning to kick some serious ass at the Hellfire Festival next month, when the opportunity came to do this tour with STRATOVARIUS, we just couldn't say no.UK and Ireland have turned out to be some of the best places on earth for Firewind when it comes to our ever growing fanbase and on how dedicated our fans are in these countries. Teaming up with Stratovarius makes this such a killer package. They are a band with quality, catchy melodic songs and a high level of musicianship. They are pioneers in their genre. They are definitely a band that has inspired us and we are honoured to share the same stage with them!!
So what can you expect from Firewind on this one? a) your face melted by our metal, b) a different setlist, and c) maybe even an exclusive brand new track? See you out there very soon!?"
