And there's a new topic, called Album #10! there's a message (translated) from the band, posted by Henrik...

Hello Friends!
We are extremely pleased to announce that we have started the sessions for the album 10. We are currently housed in a studio in southern France where we put down new awesome songs for yet another magical album.

It will be awsome!
Kiss & hug kent

(edit- a friend guessed at France from the photos on Friday)

I hope they go with a different sound this time. :/ Like going old school like their self title? I would love that soooo much. I love that Kent.

I hope they'll surprise me, which they haven't really done with the last two albums. Not that they were bad, they just didn't give me a big 'WOW'! Hope to get that this time, and for some reason I have the feeling that this could be a really, really good one

Too bad they didn't surprise us with a finished album. However, that would have meant another winter tour. I hope that the new tour will take place in May

Some wonderful news....

New Album in April & tourdates:

In April the new album ‘I’m not afraid of the dark’ will be released.

During the autumn, the band rehearsed the new songs which were written during the year.
And in November, Jocke, Martin, Markus and Sami went to France, when they came home again, they had a whole new album in the bag.

How does it sound? It remains to be seen, but the band says:
“We wanted to make a collection of songs where only the best songs qualified.
Proud, hopeful and relieved (well, almost) from self-pity. We wanted to once again return to the point where we play magical songs together in a room. You will love it"!”

In the summer kent will tour and now we can release some of the concerts:

29 June – Borlänge – Peace & Love
30 June – Hamar (Norge) – Hamar Music Festival
6 July – Karlstad – Putte i parken
13 July – Stavern (Norge) – Stavern Festivalen
14 July – Göteborg – Trädgårdsföreningen
4 August – Oslo (Norge) – Operataket
9 August – Skanderborg (Danmark) – Smukfest 2012
17 August – Ålesund (Norge) – Jugendfest
21 August– Åbo (Finland) – Slottsfestival

More dates will follow.
