POWER QUEST to support Crimson Glory and European Tour starting soon
After a successful album launch and tour in the UK, Power Quest are now confirmed as main support for US legends Crimson Glory at their exclusive UK show in London on 17th July.
Crimson Glory are back with new singer Todd La Torre who has definitely added a breath of fresh air to the rest of the band, but just as importantly, it has given the fans a new reason to watch, hope, and eagerly await the next chapter.
Steve Williams: This year is definitely going really well. After the hugely positive feedback on the Symphony X tour, we had high hopes for our first few UK shows to test the waters for our new album. The reaction was overwhelming and we had immediate demand for more shows. So we are already booking shows for autumn. And now - supporting one of my favourite bands, the legendary Crimson Glory! Thats certainly one of my personal highlights this year.
Power Quest will embark shortly on their first headline European tour, starting on 9th June in Belgium.

Metalreviews
91/100 - Album of the Month
Blood Alliance triumphs. is a completely successful reinvention of one of my favorite power metal bands, and its Power Quests best album to date. I doubt Ill hear a better power metal album this year.
BlackWindMetal
8.25/10.0 - Most anticipated album of 2011
Blood Alliance is a great return from a talented band and songwriter. and this is likely going to end up on my end-of-year list for 2011.
