The album was recorded at Nalen, a venue in Stockholm on 26 January 2008. The band was accompanied by a string quartet and played reworked versions of its own songs, as well as cover versions of songs by bands that have influenced Europe's sound over the years – Pink Floyd, UFO, Led Zeppelin and Thin Lizzy. The album debuted on the Swedish Album Chart at number 26, and went to number 23 the following week.

The album is dedicated to Michelle Meldrum, John Norum's late wife, who died on 21 May 2008.
