Power metal icon in Sweden they were recognized as the best hard rock band of 2006 and 2007.
Their last album titled “The War to End All Wars” appeared in 2022. In an interview for the program “Wired In The Empire” broadcast by 96.7 KCAL-FMJoakim When asked about work on the new album, he revealed some information: “I feel like we’re constantly working on new material. I mean, if we end up with an album, I’m like, ‘Fuck it. I don’t want to write music for a while‘. But three months later I’m writing new songs. It happened that I sat down with one of the guitarists on tour and we were bored on our day off because there wasn’t much to do. It was Sunday. Everything was closed. So we grabbed our gear and played songs because it was better than doing nothing“.
The musician also shared that what feelings he feels when the material for the album is readyy: “As for me, when the album is ready, I hate to say it, I fucking hate itbecause this is the first process… I’m not the only creator in the team, but I write most of the music. I am involved in writing the lyrics or most of the songs and almost all songs in a musical context. So I spend months in the studio writing, alone or with someone, a then I prepare all the pre-productionswhich again is about cleaning up shots and what we’re going to doputting it all together, delivering it to everyone on the team so they can practice. Then we go to the studio. And then I’m a fixture in the studio, I keep an eye on everything, I make sure that everything is (as it should be) with the manufacturer. So I’m on the whole recording. Then I take a little breakand then the sound engineer starts mixing. And I go back to mixing. At this point, I’m tired of these songs. In everything I do from this point on, I’m trying to find problems and bugs. What went wrong? What doesn’t fit here? Do we need to do a repeat? Should we fix something? Oh, is it too loud? Do we need to improve this? So at this point I’m already programmed to only hear problems with the album. So before we get the master, I hate it. I’m so tired of this music. So it will take me a year or two before I can, in some objective way, listen to it again.
