QUEEN Guitarist BRIAN MAY Releases Remastered Music Video For Classic Single "Resurrection"

Queen guitar legend, Brian May, has re-released his classic single and video, "Resurrection", featured on the remastered Back To The Light album, out now.

A live showstopper and a hard rock juggernaut, "Resurrection" is also a seismic testament to the combined power of determination and restorative, collaborative friendship. With its ferocious momentum, full force drums, multi-stacked harmonies and soaring guitar heroics, "Resurrection" is considered by some fans THE standout cut from May’s 1992 solo album, Back To The Light. Performed live by The Brian May Band, "Resurrection" would feature as the centrepiece of May’s epic ‘Guitar Extravagance’ sequence, holding its own alongside the explosive rock climax of Queen’s revered "Bohemian Rhapsody". Issued as a single in 1993, "Resurrection" arrived in the UK Singles Chart accompanied by a video of notably – in May’s words – “biblical intensity”.

Back To The Light will be available in a Collector’s Edition box set featuring an exclusive white-vinyl LP, two CDs, a 32-page book, a 12” art print, a download card and an enamel badge all presented in a lift-lid box. A limited-edition (x1,000) of the same box-set is available exclusively on Queen Online Store with a signed 12” art print.

The album is also released on 1LP black 180g vinyl, 1CD, Deluxe 2CD, Cassette and digital formats, with Out Of The Light available in the box set, on the 2CD and digital formats. A limited-edition 1LP Picture Disc is also be available exclusively on Queen Online Store.
