“This album is really a special one to us. Since our last record, “Battles”, we’ve established our own annual festival in Sweden and have been touring non-stop worldwide, creating an even stronger bond with our fans. You could say it was a big part of our inspiration for this album. It’s been such a long journey that just keeps going and growing; We feel extremely thankful for that, and for the support that makes it possible.

Watch the lyric video for ‘(This Is Our) House’ here:
“I was very intrigued by doing something I’ve never done before and honored getting the question from IN FLAMES. Also trying to portray a lively song in a dark room, sitting in front of a camera was challenging, but I felt strongly for the song and the lyrics, so that was a comfort.” – Martin Wallström from Mr. Robot

It’s always been a dream to do something of that caliber, and it was more magical and special than we could have ever imagined. Being the first festival to take place on the Borgholm castle grounds was exciting and also taught us a lot about what we can do to make next year an even better experience for fans. We’re really excited and thankful to everyone who continues to follow our music and stay with us on this journey. In Jesterheads We Trust.” – Vocalist and co-curator of Borgholm Brinner, Anders Fridén.
