“The weather forecast points to a Nordic gothic storm that is rising”, says Markus Vanhala (guitar). “The song mood is highly inspired by the late nightly empty roads of Goth-emburg and their desperate stories of loneliness and getting lost to the unique beautiful misery and sorrow of Nordic gothic.” 

Mikael Stanne (vocals) adds: “It’s about a built-up frustration and how it can get out of hand, the feeling of helplessness and how it can take over.” Santeri Kallio (keyboards) concludes: “It’s a simple, rocky song that represents the band perfectly.”

Make sure to watch the video that was filmed by Patric Ullaeus (rEvolver Film Company),
as it documents a very special moment in the band’s history:

“The video is telling the story of how this weird gang of friends is literally coming together”, says Vanhala and Kallio adds: ”We take a walk through an old cemetery and actually meet as a band for the very first time.”
