UMPG Scandinavia has entered into an exclusive publishing agreement with the songwriter, vocalist and frontman of Europe, Joey Tempest. The band’s forthcoming album, Come This Madness, is set for release September 25th. Europe are currently on the European festival circuit and will embark on a 40th-anniversary tour of The Final Countdown this fall.
Come This Madness was recorded at RMV Studio in Stockholm. The album features special guest appearances from Tobias Forge (Ghost) and Mikael Åkerfeldt (Opeth) and was produced by acclaimed producer Tom Dalgety, known for his work with Ghost, Rammstein, Pixies, The Cult and Opeth. Dalgety became a central creative force throughout the process, working closely with the band on the writing and recording while helping shape the album’s sound from the ground up. To complete the record, the band turned to the legendary mixer Mike Fraser, whose credits include AC/DC, Van Halen, Metallica, The Cult and Loverboy.
