Four albums and a lifetime of adventures later, they are now ready to release new music via AFM Records – first move will be to empower and present the self-released masterpiece “Scandinavian Aftermath” with the tools of a label to a global audience! With over 15 million streams on Spotify alone and a constant listener base of 100k, various live shows, tours and radio airplay, they are now more than ever ready to conquer the world!
dEMOTIONAL on the signing: “We are extremely excited to start this cooporation with AFM Records.
