// A FEW MORE ANSWERS //

@ mic's girl - im planning on using my old Hammond B3 a bit more on this album. It seems to really fit the vibe and direction were going.

@ Jenny - were not trying to overthink anything this time.. just following our hearts and souls and using our experience together with a great young producer.

@ mari - we're planning a release around april/may, in time for summer festivals (eg: sweden rock), so in a perfect world we will be mixing the album end of february.

@ tone irene - together with our manager we will find great partners to work with on this project, but we all do have a special feeling with this particular album. As for the fans, we love it when youre active spreading the news of the release by word of mouth, online, banners and so on. The internet is very powerful these days, so you can actually be a part of the whole thing.

@ ravscool - with "almost unplugged" this is the first time weve released a vinyl in a long time, so we will learn from the process, however we do still like this format. Its not impossible.

@ olga maria - I think all artists toys with the idea of making conceptual albums, like Pink Floyd for example... for us, as a touring rock band, we channel all our ideas into a selection of songs, which is more practical for us. We like to think there is always a thread both musically and lyrically on every Europe album.

@ Marian - hopefully we will make a new DVD on the forthcoming tour. Time will tell.

@ Bojana - the working title for the song in the video was "I Break Down" - the song originated from a John Norum riff.

@ Daniela - its a pretty straight forward rock album... however there are 1 or 2 more quiet moments.... we wouldnt call it "acoustic" though.

@ RnRCroatia - The way we approach and record this album is more related to "Wings of Tomorrow". There are many similarities to our other albums, but we also have a new fresh approach working with our young producer. Perhaps with some more keyboards.

@ katefromrussia - Yes, John Norum had a "waxident"... maybe he'll tell you more about this one of these days.

@ arsen - A big Neve console, and Pro tools recording system.

// SOME ANSWERS //

@ Aleksander - Norum is using the same junk he always uses... Marshall 50 Watt JCM 800... Gibson Les Pauls.... Mike - Shure SM57.

@ petdetect - as were still working on lyrics we will have to wait and see what feels right as an album title - working title right now is "More is More".

@ Deni - as of now there are two ballads - Mic and Joey have written one, and Joey one.

@ gibsonlove_ - Norum and Leven say "mind your own business, but Leven's room number is 405". :-)

@ JimmyZ - the video vault may or may not appear in the future - what we can promise you is a brand new website in time for the new album.

@ Fernanda - we're always looking for new places to play!

@ rockatroll - the word ass will probably appear in that song. At this point, all are working titles, and a handful of them are likely to be changed at a later date.

@ james - closest we could describe it, is a modern retro rock album.

@ THRILLHO_use - when in the studio, we always play with covers, but nothing is carved in stone yet.

Thanks for taking the time to post your questions...we will do our best to answer a few more questions tomorrow.
