QUEENSRŸCHE Kicks Off European Leg Of ‘The Origins Tour’ In Helsinki
Written by megarock on February 1, 2025
Although QUEENSRŸCHE would score multi-platinum albums and hit singles over their career, their fans have developed an undeniable love for the group’s early releases, the 1983 EP and 1984’s “The Warning” album, when they helped trailblaze a style of rock that combined elements of metal and prog. And for the first time ever, QUEENSRŸCHE is performing both classic releases in their entirety as part of “The Origins Tour”.
When the U.S. leg of “The Origins Tour” was first announced, singer Todd La Torre said in a statement: “We are thrilled to bring to you ‘The Origins Tour’. This will be the first time in QUEENSRŸCHE‘s history that the EP and ‘The Warning’ will be performed live in their entirety.”
He added: “Join us for this unique and very special experience, as we celebrate the origins of QUEENSRŸCHE. Take hold!”
Early last year, QUEENSRŸCHE completed its 2023 U.S. headlining tour with support from former MEGADETH guitarist Marty Friedman and TRAUMA. On that tour, QUEENSRŸCHE‘s 18-song set included no less than five songs from the band’s sixteenth studio album, “Digital Noise Alliance”, which came out in October 2022 via Century Media. The record was once again helmed by Chris “Zeuss” Harris, who previously worked with QUEENSRŸCHE on 2015’s “Condition Hüman” and 2019’s “The Verdict” LPs.
