Rock Project 4 - Europe

Probably one of the less recognized bands in the World, Europe was a heavy group in the beggining of the 80's, but with a more hard rock sound (almost a glam rock), that reached world sucess with some music's like "Final Countdown, Carrie and Rock the Night", follow by "Supersticious, Open your Hart and Let the good times Roll", but this time without the guitar player John Norum (Kee Marcelo was the choice for the replacement, in the next two albuns). "Prisioners in Paradise" was a great performance but in a time were Grunge run the world, the record had only a few sales. After a pause of more than a decade and some interesting personel projects they came back with is original formation and with a more powerfull sound, made by a impressive regular number of albums and DVD's to prove their good performance in studio and live. Also the visual was change a lot, with a much more aproach to common live style then that "air metal" influence (today we can see in for example Steel Panther but Motley Crue still have some features) "Final Countdown" is not "my album", and i prefer "Out of this World", but the new ones in this seccond period that the band "came to live" are mutch better. And live performances never were so spectacular, since the interaction between all five members are on top. To bad today is very rare that they play in stadiums, but most of the fans don't care because they know that the band is here to stay.
