Gus G. has checked in to comment on the recent activities in the FIREWIND camp as follows:
„Hey everybody! Hope you’ve all had a great summer. We sure had a blast out there and we’ve just finished our festival run in Europe by playing an amazing gig @ Germany’s Summer Breeze Open Air. We recently decided to film some special videos for our YouTube channel, FireTV and keep you updated by what goes on backstage, or while traveling, the surprises we get on the road, funny moments, etc. Here’s the first one from our recent visit to the UK for Bloodstock festival. More to follow, stay tuned!
Finally, we’re looking forward to playing Australia for the first time ever in the band’s history! So get those tickets now cause Greece’s finest will be making its way Down Under!”
The live material featured on FIREWIND‘s powerful sounding „Apotheosis – Live 2012” release were recorded at special anniversary shows in Greece as well as all over Europe during the band’s „Few Against Many” tour in 2012 and comes with a playing time of 69 minutes, featuring a great overview of the band’s 7-albums spanning career so far as well as quite a different tracklisting than 2008’s „Live Premonition” release.
