Imagine going to a Raven Age show and there's no Iron Maiden set after. Just... The Raven Age and then you go home. Sad.

Are you getting paid to see the Raven Age?

Why ? I'm just informing people freely that these two bands will do european tours. That doesn't mean I will buy a ticket to see them live.

UDO DIRKSCHNEIDER To Release Re-Recorded, Star-Studded Version Of ACCEPT's 'Balls To The Wall'

Marking the 40th anniversary of ACCEPT's iconic album "Balls To The Wall", the band's founding member and former frontman Udo Dirkschneider has reinterpreted this classic with a fresh and star-studded twist. Far from a simple remake, this project was born out of countless conversations with...

blabbermouth.net

Udo will re-record Balls To The Wall album with guest vocalist on every song. The new cover at least looks better, but that wasn't difficult.

Kiske for ''Losing More Than You've Ever Had'' is especially curious. Ripper for ''Guardian Of The Night'' too. Biff, Joakim Broden and Doro will fit great.

Watch: MARKO HIETALA And BATTLE BEAST's NOORA LOUHIMO Perform NIGHTWISH Medley In Lahti, Finland

BATTLE BEAST's Noora Louhimo joined ex-NIGHTWISH bassist/vocalist Marko Hietala on stage earlier tonight (Friday, February 7) at Finlandia club in Lahti, Finland to perform a medley of the NIGHTWISH songs "Nemo", "The Islander" and "Weak Fantasy", as well as "Wish I Had An Angel". Fan-filmed...

I knew Noora from Battle Beast would do a good job singing Nightwish songs.

The medley with Marko was: Nemo/The Islander/Weak Fantasy (fitting for her voice)/Wish I Had An Angel

This came out today. What to say, nothing will beat the original, but some renditions are cool:

Biff makes the verses of London Leatherboys to sound like a Saxon song, which is nice and expected.
Kiske oddly fits for Losing More Than You've Ever Had, although I wanted to hear the chorus without Udo - he sounds solid in the studio.
Dee makes Losers And Winners a TS song, which is not surprising.
Ripper Owens for Guardian Of The Night is ok, although the duets are not correct to say if it fits fully.
