Media type: CD

THRESHOLD issue a new double-disc digipak concert recording, »European Journey«, via Nuclear Blast in November. The UK-based band was responsible for one of the most remarkable statements in rock music of last year. Hailed by fans and reviewers alike, »For The Journey« - their tenth studio release - provides the centrepiece of the material featured on this new double-set and will be the subject of several in-its-entirety-based performances in January 2016.

»European Journey« contains 15 live tracks preserved for posterity as the six-piece band rendered audiences spellbound at various continental European venues during the promotion of »For The Journey« in November of ’14. Despite the popularity of the download culture THRESHOLD still very much believe in the album as an artistic statement, also retaining affection for the format of a double-live release.

THRESHOLD have released live albums in the past, but »European Journey« is their first to showcase the majestic voice of Damian Wilson, who re-joined in 2007 following the departure of predecessor Andrew “Mac” McDermott to begin a third spell with the group.

The album’s production, courtesy of Richard West and guitarist Karl Groom - the latter of whom has been employed by DRAGONFORCE, TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED, PENDRAGON and YES - is pristine. Close your eyes and you’re there in the fifth row back and dead-centre of the stage.
