Celebration Day - 30 Years Of Mob Rules

Northern German melodic power metallers Mob Rules are celebrating their 30th anniversary. Time to let it rip! With 'Celebration Day - 30 Years Of Mob Rules', the band around singer Klaus Dirks releases a compilation that could hardly have become more extensive and of higher quality.

In addition to this great cross-section of the band's career, there are also some tracks that were previously only available digitally (for example the latest single 'Hymn Of The Damned' and the Amon Amarth cover 'Raven's Flight'). Especially for this compilation, all these tracks have been carefully remastered by Markus Teske. With three brand new cover songs, 'Celebration Day - 30 Years Of Mob Rules' also contains previously unreleased material. With great attention to detail, the band took on songs as different as 'Run To The Hills' (Iron Maiden), 'Fame' (Irene Cara), and 'Sq
