Andre [2009] - "It's now been three years since The Great Cold Distance came out and, rightfully so, we had to let the distance ring out long and loud. Katatonia was not a product conceived at a manufacturing facility. We never inserted ourselves inside the grinding wheel of being a product line - hyped when brand new, tossed away when outdated. Bands come and go, rise and fall. We're a brick in that wall too, but won’t crash overnight, because we walked this road for two decades, slowly. Fortunately, we're past the level where struggling bands get caught in the claws of the fast food concept of the music industry. From day one, it was always about a long term mission, something to go hand in hand and accompany a chosen lifestyle through all its stages. The foundation and concept of Katatonia was, and still is, to channel the negative aspects of living into artistic creativity, and we're well aware that the outcome of that is simply not for everyone to embrace. Our new work is manifested in the whole album as a solid piece, not as destined selections for the very commercial media to deliver the soundtrack to accompany John Doe's shallow daily routines. Airplay doesn't last, but albums are forever."
