The tour comes to a close in their home country of Sweden, with a concert in Lund on April 17\. Accompanying the five-piece is Canadian post punk outfit Bonnie Trash, another special guest is yet to be announced. Please find a full list of dates, pre-sale times and ticket link below.

On **Nightmares as Extensions of the Waking State**, crystal-clear production highlights the interplay between silence and intensity, while the contrast of heavy riffs, delicate guitar harmonies, ethereal synthesizers, and atmospheric nuances create captivating tension. Tracks like *“Thrice”* and *“Warden”*pulse with dynamic energy, while *“Lilac”* sees Jonas Renkse’s unmistakable vocals intertwining with hypnotic rhythms and progressive elements. *“Temporal”* balances fragility and strength - its intense verses culminating in a soaring, emotionally charged chorus, while the breathtaking *“Efter Solen”* (Engl. After the Sun), featuring Swedish lyrics, mesmerizes with minimalistic yet striking instrumentation.
