Commented EVERGREY mastermind Tom S. Englund: "It's been a long fucking year negotiating this deals, not something we've enjoyed too much. It's taken its toll on everything from economy to psyche. BUT now it's finally done and we are extremely curious on what the future has in its hands for us!
"We have made changes in everything surrounding EVERGREY, everything from management, record label to booking and perhaps most important, changed our own approach to this thing called EVERGREY.
"It came to a time a while ago where we ALL were tired of everything surrounding this bitch called the music industry. It affected our whole perception of what and who we were. It most certainly killed everything close to joy and in the end made it feel like a boring 9-5 job where you don't like your co-workers and just want to go home. But, as I said, we've been through that now and coming out on the other end of this rather dark tunnel are five guys who have the same determination, goals and fire to keep this ball spinning for another couple of laps!"
"Torn" was previously described by Englund as a "modern mix of 'In Search Of Truth' and 'Recreation Day'." "The tracks are all guitar-oriented and very atmospheric," he said. "They have exactly the sound that our fans expect from us." According to Englund, the slightly more experimental direction of EVERGREY's previous release, "Monday Morning Apocalypse", has given way again to old strengths and virtues. "Two years ago we needed an album with a slightly different approach and an expensive producer, just to find out how that sort of thing works," he explained. "It was the right album at the time, but now we have returned to our typical trademarks." This is one of the reasons why the tracks on "Torn" were self-produced by Englund together with drummer Jonas Ekdahl. In addition, the band has a new bassist, Fredrik Larsson having been replaced by former STRATOVARIUS musician Jari Kainulainen.
Since the band arrived on the scene in 1998, EVERGREY has brought out six studio albums and one live release. All of them made the Top 20 in the group's native Sweden and the last two cracked the Top 10 (No. 6 and 3, respectively). On top of that, EVERGREY's DVD was No. 1 for four weeks and was nominated for the Swedish Grammy equivalent.
Regarding the upcoming reissues of the band's complete back catalogue, Englund said, "There is so much additional material for each album that we could theoretically re-release it on an extra DVD. Whatever we manage to do — premium reissues are certainly a possibility."
