Vocalist Paavo Laapotti comments:
”I love melodeath so the songwriting was really easy-going. We worked on this album for a long time, but I'm glad we did. I gathered a bunch of talented people around me for this project and now I just feel very proud of the album and my band mates.”
Album's lyrical themes revolve around depression, death and my thoughts around these topics. I've used a lot of my own experiences in life while writing these lyrics and I feel like it has been some sort of therapy for me. This project is my baby and I want to give it my all.
Nikos from VisionBlack did an amazing job with the cover art I designed with him. He captured just the right feeling to his art what we were looking for.”
”We also got the priviledge to work with Juha Tapio and Sonja Lindberg and they did a phenomenal job.”
