It is remarkable to see Royal Hunt on the pages of “BIG IN JAPAN” – a special issue of BURRN magazine. Pretty notable to find the whole lot of stories about Royal Hunt’s musical journey in Japan among the stories of such monsters as Bon Jovi, Mr.Big, Helloween, Fair Warning, Harem Scarem, Night Ranger, Dokken.
You can purchase this issue on Amazon Japan.
