about

Back in 2010 when we just released ‘Excavations of the Mind’ we weren’t busy with a possible 10-year anniversary edition of this album. We were young and we found a record company willing to release what we had made. Our first challenge was won already and the years after were only going to be more exiting and adventurous. Just after the release date, we spent the summer in a studio in Sweden to record our second album. Back then, the cottage wasn’t equipped with luxuries like Wi-Fi and therefore we spent quite some time looking for an internet connection. Not only to update you about our recording sessions, but also to wander the internet to look for and read reviews of ‘Excavations of the Mind’. I believe we’ve read every single one and translated review from many languages and you liked it!
Three more studio albums followed and it basically turned out to go similar, roaming the interwebs for reviews and read about your opinions and findings on the newest album. But we also grew as a band by playing our music in front of you. We’ve played esteemed festivals like Night of the Prog in Germany, ProgPower Europe in the Netherlands, Summers End Festival in Wales and we even had the chance to fly to Canada and play Terra Incognita festival. Who knows what’s to come! We never thought about the idea of re-releasing a previous album, because we simply didn’t have to. But now is the time to once again give you a renewed, maybe better, maybe just different, maybe equally awesome ‘Excavations of the Mind’, enriched with previous unreleased live material and special versions of songs.

Thank you for supporting us throughout the years. Thank you for showing up at our concerts. Thank you for your kind words, but also for your critical notes. Thank you for the fact that you help us do what we love to do the most of all. Creating music for ourselves and everyone of you. Putting our mind, hearts and effort in sounds arranged in such a way you can enjoy it. We would love to hear from you and we will keep doing our utmost best to keep doing what we love most.
