![]() I would say we started working on the album seriously in January 2020. I was already writing some riffs and things like that, bits and pieces of music already in 20. Since you released “Deceiver, Deceiver” quite a long time ago already, when did you guys actually start writing the album? Did you already start working on it before the famous March 2020? It all worked out really nicely, now I’m very positive about the whole approach we had. So we thought, let’s put out songs and connect with the fans again and let them know we’re still here, and hopefully, they’re still there for us. We couldn’t really go on tour, we didn’t know when we could go on tour, but we also didn’t want to sit on the album even longer than we already had. It came from the record label and the management and you know, they really wanted to try this approach, I think partially because of the pandemic maybe. This was a different approach, it wasn’t my idea, but it worked out really well, so I love to say it’s my idea. I’m very rooted in releasing two singles and the album is out, and boom we’re on tour. I was a bit skeptical when this plan came together because it’s not what I’m used to. Was that intentional or did that happen because of the pandemic? I thought this was a really interesting approach in general, how you released many singles for this cycle. ![]() You sort of left fans hanging a little bit. I remember when you released “Deceiver, Deceiver,” you didn’t have any info about an album even. Yeah, that was going to be one of my questions. The album is out today, but half of the album is very well established already in a way, so it’s pretty cool. I think the first single came up 9 or 10 months ago, “Deceiver, Deceiver.” We have all these songs, “House of Mirrors,” “Handshake with Hell,” “Sunset over the Empire,” and now “In the Eye of the Storm” they’ve all really connected with the fans very well, people really know these songs, so it’s kind of different. We’ve had this really long-running campaign. We like the new album, we’re playing five or six new songs, I think. You just released your album today and you’re playing at Knotfest in Turku today. I would have liked to see your show at least. I’m really sorry I couldn’t be there in person. Yeah, I guess you shouldn’t complain too much now that there are shows again.Įxactly, we were there, it was great. Īnyway, let’s get started. I would have liked to start off with something smaller, but hey, you don’t get to choose all the time. I guess Wacken is maybe a pretty intense festival to start with again. We played Wacken a few days ago, whenever that was. Oh yeah, we played one festival so far, we didn’t play festivals for 3 years. We just arrived at Turku to play at Knotfest.Īre you excited to play today? I guess it’s your first time in a while playing in Finland.
