Commented singer Björn Strid: "When we started this band in a galaxy not so far away, some years ago, I wouldn’t have dreamed of being up for a Grammy nomination, but here we are. Our future looks just as bright as the music of the past, that we’ve carefully and respectfully drawn inspiration from and made into our own unstoppable creature. We are beyond excited and grateful, that there are still people out there, appreciating a timeless melody and true musicianship."
