I got the War of Kings special edition with the Wacken DVD for Christmas.  I've watched it and I thought it was pretty good.  |

Looks quite dark from what I saw too...although I like the camera angles. Good sound quality too although don't know if how much overdubbing if any went into it.

I think it was mixed by Tobias Lindell (LLAE producer)

I've just received the special edition of it : bluray/DVD, CD and a photobook. (this one : musique.fnac.com/a9200951/Europe-War-of-kings-Inclus-DVD-plus-Blu-ray-CD-album?oref=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000&Origin=SEA_GOOGLE_PLA_MUSIQ&adhce=crtdcvrt2014&mckv=HHYcmD6w_dc&pcrid=64457387783&ectrans=1&gclid=CMKX896zjcoCFaoIwwodj6IIIg ) Very nice film ! No reproach at all this time : no weird layouts, blured images, grey bits... like in some previous DVD. Just pleasure !!! That was the first time I was watching some new songs live, because I didn't attend any full WOK show last year, and I refrained myself from watching them on youtube. So, there were some amazing discoveries!  "second day" is really great. "Praise you" extraordinary. "WOK" ,"hole", and "Days" are huge ( it was'nt a discovery, because I saw them live in Toulouse, but a real pleasure to watch them again !!) Only "nothing to ye" seemed a bit weaker to me than on the album. But I think maybe it's because it's played just after "girl from lebanon" : I've noticed the 2 songs are quite similar, but GFL is more melodic ; that's probably why NTY seems weaker. Probably, played right after "ready or not" it would sound more interesting. Looks quite dark from what I saw too...although I like the camera angles. Good sound quality too although don't know if how much overdubbing if any went into it. The sound is very good, yes. good job K. Shirley. But dark : not especially, at least on the bluray. |
