pour le 19 octobre, voici les commentaires du groupe sur chacun des titres :
Hero - We were looking for a real live track and opener for the album and here it is. We were testing this song a couple of times while we were playing live and it was such fun to play.
Justice Is Deserved - A really heavy track with the albums highest vocal note and angry lyrics.
Sinister Mind - The title track. It contains heavy guitar riffs, melodic verses and great choirs, done by Erik Mårtensson (Eclipse). He´s been involved in all choirs actually.
Going Under - A classic Jaded Heart groove like Anymore or Inside Out.
See The Light - We wrote that song together after we entered the rehearsing room for a jam session. We killed some beers and things just happened.
Open Your Eyes - A good friend of the band, Mikael Rosengren, wrote this song together with Johan. Johan came up with the idea of having the song on the album because it really sounds like early Jaded Heart. We cranked it up a little bit and here it is! Another reason to have Mikael involved in the album is, that he introduced Johan to us in 2004.
My Eager´s Red - The 2nd part of the guitar solo was played by Sascha Gerstner of German metal heroes Helloween. It is great to have some friends involved in the album and we are very proud having him playing on this song.
Always On My Mind - This song is dedicated to Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin.
Heavenly Devotion - This song was planned to have a duet between John Corabi and Johan. But unfortunately Johns time schedule was too tough because he had to go on tour with Ratt when we were recording vocals for this song.
To Please and Give In - A classic “kid missing father/mother figure” lyric. So full of hate.
Hellucinate - AOR-vibes in the beginning that turns to schizophrenia. Scary... he he.
Crush That Fear - Peter had this idea to fool around with some different drum patterns on this song. Johan and Peter woke up after a long night with wine and beer with various riffs and vocal lines. But most of it is still there. Amazing.
