Amigos!
For the last couple of months, we have been meeting up every now and then up in my mothers log cabin in Boda, Hellsingland, rehearsing intensily on the songs we’ve been writing in the last couple of years. There first were 25 of them, then 20, then 15, and now finally we have chosen the very best 12 songs that we will start record today! 10, or 12 will end up on our fifth studio album that will be released sometime next year.
Once again, we are in the SubMob Studios, Stockholm, with Martin Karlegård behind the knobs. Some of you might remember the hoolabaloo from the recording of the last album, where we told you about some sort of meltdown between us. All we can say about that is: That’s kinda how it’s always been with him and us. (Though that session was perhaps a little more extreme).
But that’s all in the past now, we have buried the hatchet, and things has been sorted out. Martin is our George Martin. We are his Beatles. And that’s just how it is. Ain’t no way around it.
We won’t bore you with any details at this point, but I can tell you this much: It’s gonna be a pretty different record compared to all our previous ones. And I mean that in the best of ways. Let’s see how far down the rabbit hole we can go this time.

PS: Peter will play all guitars on this album. And when it’s all done, we will more actively look out for a new guitarist. We have a few interesting leads, but if you know anyone you think would fit, please give us a tip!
