Says MARDUK‘s Morgan Håkansson: “As we just played the final date of the ‘Serpent Sermon Tour’, which has been an intense march across this world, we are proud to announce that before this year comes to an end yet another march over Europe will be done! Three weeks of mayhem as we are teaming up with legendary death metal act GRAVE as well as VALKYRJA and DEATH WOLFMARDUK will be spearheading and be performing the entire ‘Panzer Division Marduk’ album from 1999, and as 2013 marks the 20th anniversary of the ‘Those Of The Unlight’ album we will be doing that one as well! So don’t miss out on this march over Europe!!”
