The album was recorded at the Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden, where the band recorded thier first selftitled album in 1997, between Sept 6th and Oct 28th. Produced by THE HAUNTED and Fredrik Nordström, it is the most brutal, yet diversed, album so far for THE HAUNTED. For the first time on a THE HAUNTED album there has been a appearance by a guest musician; the great musician, and longtime friend, Mike Amott of Arch Enemy-Spiritual Beggers fame. The song being "Bloodletting", where both Mike and Anders Björler have their own solos parts, but they also meet up at the end of the song for a good oldfashioned solo duel... Nothing less than amazing!!!
