Recording session
On Saturday December 13, 2007, the band entered the Horus-Sound Studio with 17 demo tracks previously written in a two weeks span at an isolated camp in Nesselwang, Bavaria. With producer Benny Richter, who had produced records for bands such as Caliban and Krypteria, the band sought a heavier sound than their previous album The Southern Comfort. It was engineered and mixed by close friend of the band, Jakob Bernhart, the man behind the console on The Life Acoustic. The final mix was completed on February 2, 2008, at around 4:40AM local time.
Soon after recording the album, the band announced that they had signed with major label Sony BMG/Drakkar for its release.
