turisas_band.jpg2007 has been an amazing year for Turisas with the release of their epic new album ‘The Varangian Way’, playing the main stage at the Download Festival, Metal Hammer’s ‘Get In The Ring’ & Kerrang Magazine’s ‘Day Of Rock’ shows in London, a sold out UK tour, Wacken, Tuska & Graspop Festivals and touring Europe with Iced Earth & Annihilator .. and finishing off with the year in style with a show stealing performance at last weekend’s inaugural Hard Rock Hell Festival in Minehead …..  so what better way to start 2008 than bringing everyone’s favourite Viking warriors back to the UK to play some more shows.

Warlord Nygard comments on the forthcoming tour “ We just got back home from Hard Rock Hell festival in Minehead, which surely was a great and rather interesting experience … we are still trying to cure our hangovers! We did our first UK tour this October, and the response was overwhelming – with sold out dates and crazy crowds everywhere! In March we will return to tour cities and towns we didn't play in October and we’re expecting you guys to prove us right in not only touring the main 4-5 cities, but trying to play as much of the country as we can and meet as many of you battle metallers as possible”
