2008.07.16 - North

This weekend well drive north to play a show in Cult of Luna's second home town Skellefteå. Early August we'll play in Luleå, another one of our home towns.

Here's a quote overheard at the merch table this summer:
"Last time I saw you – you were atmospherical. But this time you had the hammer!"

2008.07.09 - More shows this summer
We celebrate being home from the first leg of the Eternal tour by booking two more shows in August in Copenhagen and Bodö. Please see the shows section for complete tourdates!
2008.07.02 - Last show for now
Back in the safe mainland Europe after a few days in the U.K. We just finished the show in Deventer and tomorrow we have the last show in Hamburg. The venues in the Netherlands must be the best in the whole world.

The DVD recording in London went really well. We'll keep you updated on what will happen with that footage.

Thanks to "the Ocean" who has supported us on many shows the last weeks. They finished their massive 3 months tour tonight. Impressive work!
2008.06.28 - Marburg
Yesterday we had to cancel our first show ever. Bacause of a major traffic jam on autobahn we got stuck for no less than six hours and we had no choice but to cancel the show in Marburg. The accident occured because of a drunken driver that crashed a truck cointaining some kind of poison.

Please accept our apologies.
2008.06.23 - Fests and Blasts
We have spent the weekend on different Fests and Blasts. Last night was Hellfest in Clisson, France. It was huge!

Also we're slowly starting to digest the fact that Sweden is no longer left in the EURO 2008 Championships.

Lowood is a band from Stockholm and the are great! We have had the pleasure to see them perform before our show in Berlin, Warsaw, Wroclaw and Chemnitz. Thanks to Kicki and Therese for the support!

2008.06.19 - Eastern Europe
When you drive through eastern Europe please take under consideration that the travel times may be slightly longer than expected. For example: a 4 hour distance will approximately take 8 hours. Once you reach your destination it's gonna be worth the trouble. The show in Warzaw was great and the people have a big metal heart!

Here's a picture from the day before, outside the club in Berlin.

2008.06.16 - Eternal Kingdom release!
Our new album is now available in stores. Unfortunately because of record label issues and music industry crisis we're not allowed to sell it to you on tour.
