The debut album. All songs which were to be found on the demo already plus another five which had been written in the meantime were recorded for it with producer Dirk Riegner, also known as the keyboard player of Secret Discovery and recently as the producer of Milú. After a short period of pre-production at Dirk Riegner's studio, which then was located right beside the grounds of the Zeche Bochum, the band entered the snow-covered Principal Studio in Münster about New Year 2003. Within one week the instruments were recorded, for the vocal recordings the band again went to Bochum to the small studio of the producer. Afterwards, the album was mixed on the grounds of the Horus Sound Studios (also Guano Apes etc.) in Hannover at a small studio of mixing engineer Modo Bierkamp. Three months later, the result - provided with an artwork by Kai Hoffmann (also Secret Discovery) - hit the stores on 5 May, 2003, and at once met with as much approval as to enter the German charts: On number 98 it only just hit them, but this was quite remarkable for a German band whose sound mainly was and still is influenced by Gothic Metal. The press also was very much taken with the band and the album without exeption gained good marks in the reviews of the scene magazines well-known and unknown. "Of course everything was very new and fascinating for us. The time spent together at the studio also today still seems like a dream to us, it was big fun to record our songs in a great, professional studio. Beforehand we were slightly suspicious because as a guitar-oriented band we were to be produced by a keyboard player, but then it all turned out well, although there were differences every now and then. I kind of got my teeth into the decision not to be singing anymore, but in retrospect it was good - I'm no singing talent, you can convince yourselves with the demos, haha! Finally, it became a nice album with everything we wanted at that time: Rocking guitars, a few spacy sounds, much atmosphere. Tiamat and Paradise Lost then were important influences, and you can right hear that. We still are very concerned about many of those songs, and no matter we already have played them a thousand times, they still are fun." (Marco)
