Northern German melodic power metallers Mob Rules are celebrating their 30th anniversary. Time to let it rip! With "Celebration Day - 30 Years OfMob Rules", the band around singer Klaus Dirks releases a compilation that could hardly have become more extensive and of higher quality. Withover 150 minutes of playing time (spread over two CDs), the capacity of the medium is stretched to the limit with 30 hand-picked songs, including notonly obvious band classics such as "Black Rain", "Hollowed Be Thy Name" and "Rain Song", but also songs that have previously been less in thespotlight. In addition to this great cross-section of the band's career, there are also some tracks that were previously only available digitally (forexample the latest single "Hymn Of The Damned" and the Amon Amarth cover "Raven's Flight"). Especially for this compilation, all these tracks havebeen carefully remastered by Markus Teske.With three brand new cover songs, "Celebration Day - 30 Years Of Mob Rules" also contains previouslyunreleased material. With great attention to detail, the band took on songs as different as "Run To The Hills" (Iron Maiden), "Fame" (Irene Cara) and"Square Hammer" (Ghost). All in all, every detail of "Celebration Day - 30 Years Of Mob Rules" displays the incredibly high quality standards of a bandthat doesn't do things by halves. Here's to the next 30 years!
