Left Behind
This song is based on a chord sequence and a specific piano sound repeating over and over, creating the foundation for the sound. Anders added some really nice synth bass grooves and a beautiful guitar melody at the end of the song, and we recorded all of the “live” parts during one session in the [...]
Let’s steal this song!
I heard this song yesterday on MTV2, it’s great! We must steal it!
Fire Fire Fire
Anders wrote this song, which contains some nice guitar sounds and a slightly traditional sound for us. Måns wrote and recorded the vocals, which are still a draft, and there are still some changes to be made to the mix. Possibly some other sounds to be added as well.

Valsen
So this is probably the only song you’ll hear from us that is sung in Swedish. This song is special because it was the first music collaboration between us for a very long time. I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to write in Swedish or English, but I switched to English after this recording. Force [...]
