The rocking half-wolves from MAN WITH A MISSION are no strangers to Europe anymore,  after visiting the last two years with headlining tours and another one coming up in October! This year there is further cause for celebration with their 15th anniversary, and they will be increasing the scale for their HOWLING ACROSS THE WORLD Europe tour. With 13 shows spread out over 6 countries, there are more opportunities for fans to see them than before. To turn it into an even bigger party, they have Australian rock band Hands Like Houses joining them on tour.

As part of their anniversary celebrations, they released their new EP aptly named XV e.p. In March. The EP not only contains new works like: Whispers of the Fake, Vertigo, Circles and their January single Reaching for the Sky, but also contains 8 live recordings of existing songs. To further engross listeners in their songs, they’ve also been releasing videos to accompany the new music.

These live recordings contain their songs Seven Deadly Sins (named after the anime) and My Hero (from Inuyashiki), among others, which were featured in popular media. Just like those songs Vertigo has joined their ranks by being used as a promo song for the recently released game Mechabreak.
