4 March 2010 Mavericks

Our brand new third album is finally done. We have named it Mavericks.

This time the process of creating this album was really challenging, not because we had a rough time writing songs, but because we felt that we had to dig deep within ourselves in order to find a place where these melodies could grow into songs.

Most of the songs were written during a pretty confusing time last fall 2009. Throughout Sep-Oct we basically lived in our rehearsal studio .We played our instruments until our fingers bleed, constantly struggling to maintain a constant creative energy.

When the first snow hit Stockholm it was time to hit the studio. We felt that we wanted to be in total charge of the recording process, so we decided to produce the record ourselves, which we ended up doing - together with the incredibly talented Lasse Mårten.

Lasse Mårten owns the now legendary Decibel Studios in Stockholm. We'd heard such great things about this guy and his studio. After our first meeting we immediately decided to record the whole album there, with him as a co-producer and engineer. 

Said and done, we moved our shit to Decibel and started working. Just the three of us. It was a period of extremely high creative energy. It was fantastic. After two months Mavericks was done. 

A maverick is a person who is not afraid to go against the stream, who has the courage to break free from his or her ideas about how things should be, to face the fear and challenge it.

Mavericks is a legendary surf location in Northern California. Here, the water is cold and dark, and giant waves crush against giant rocks. A mavericks is a person who surfs his own wave. Everybody wants to be a maverick, or at least we do. 

On April 30th Mavericks will be released in Scandinavia , Germany, Austria and Switzerland for your listening pleasure.
