The band commented: “Here it is! A new album! Yet again! This is what we love about music, it never ends! Our mission is to write music so here you are! Ten new songs! Ten new Evergrey songs that we hope you will have by your side as your life continues to shift and grow. Ten songs that we wish will be part of the soundtrack when you’re creating new memories and new possibilities in your life. Ten songs that we feel privileged to have you listen to. Ten songs that have risen through the ashes of two years where our creativity has had more time than ever to flourish.

“Ten songs we really hope you will enjoy as much as we did writing them. As usual we have given it our best and we can’t wait to hear what you have to say! A new year, a new album, a new record label = new possibilities. All this can only be positive, right? Enjoy!”
