2019 roster speculation?

That makes me think "pop drenched Soilwork," which sounds a lot better than that description implies. Like The Ralph with a growler added in, sorta.

I dig it. Thanks for posting it.
 
Demons & Wizards are doing a show at next year's Wacken fest, so there's additional hope that they might bring it to the states for PPUSA. If anyone can make it happen, Glenn can.

sorry for the double post but I am seeing something happening. 80s pastiche is getting too big to ignore.

I'm guessing the theme of next year with be Outrun/cyberpunk will be peppered with bands that have that retro-futuristic 80s vibe like

I am interested to see who else is in the band for Demons & Wizards when they play, especially since it has been 14 years (next year in 2019) since the band released material.
