British rock legends Magnum have announced the highly anticipated release of their final live album, Live At KK’s Steel Mill, featuring the band’s iconic lineup with guitarist Tony Clark. Set for release in early 2025, the album promises to be a fitting tribute to the band’s remarkable legacy and a celebration of their extensive career.
Magnum, known for their blend of melodic rock and symphonic elements, have captivated fans worldwide with their powerful performances and timeless music. Over the years, they have earned a devoted fan base, particularly in the UK and Europe, for their ability to deliver high-energy live shows. The upcoming album was recorded during the band’s electrifying performance at KK’s Steel Mill in Wolverhampton, one of the last concerts to feature Tony Clark before his departure from the band.
Tony Clark, whose distinctive guitar work has been central to Magnum’s sound since the early 1980s, will be honored as part of the final chapter in the band’s career. Known for his soaring solos and tight, rhythm-heavy playing, Clark’s contributions to Magnum’s sound were integral to the band’s rise to prominence. Live At KK’s Steel Mill will capture some of the band’s most celebrated tracks, including hits like “Kingdom of Madness,” “Les Morts Dansant,” and “On a Storyteller’s Night.” The live album will also feature rare performances and behind-the-scenes footage, giving fans an intimate look at the band’s dynamics during the final show with Clark.
The recording, produced and mixed by longtime collaborator Mike Exeter, promises to offer the same punch and energy that Magnum is famous for. It will feature a full setlist that includes both fan favorites and deeper cuts from their extensive discography. Fans can expect crisp sound and vibrant performances that encapsulate Magnum’s skill at crafting both anthemic choruses and intimate moments of musical expression.
Magnum’s final live album with Tony Clark is set to be a monumental release for fans of the band. It marks not only the end of an era but the culmination of years of passion, craftsmanship, and a deep connection to their fan base. As the band gears up to retire from live performances, Live At KK’s Steel Mill will serve as a farewell to a beloved member of the band and a definitive live document of Magnum’s place in rock history. The album will be available on multiple formats, including vinyl, CD, and digital download, and is expected to be a collector’s item for fans.
