Aktiv Dödshjälp (Euthanasia)
After a gig during 2006, Petter, Samuel and John chose to quit the band, for different reasons. At this time I saw the opportunity to make the ultimate Aktiv Dödshjälp record, something I couldn’t have done earlier because of separate opinions in the band. “Allt hopp e ute (All hope is gone)” was theme record, regarding anger, “En tid av smärta och förnedring (A time of pain and degradation)” was a record about bitterness and negative exposition, and the four tracks recorded for the Slaktattack split was about solitude. Having dealt with all these themes and having the ability to take this band to an entirely new level, I decided to write a concept album, something I had thought about for quite some time. Sonny Stark (Massmord) was asked shortly after the decision was made, if he was interested in taking the roll as the bands new singer, and he accepted. A concept about a single individuals broken upbringing, about the experiences from its childhood until its abrupt ending was beginning to take shape, at the same time as the first songs were written.
Calle Larsson (ex-Kaos, Kris och Helvete) was contacted and he also accepted being a part of the band, and being a part of the new album. Under the recording sessions K.C joined forces with band
4:48
4:48 was the title that I gave the album, which is the time when the majority of people commit suicide. With a new band, and new fresh songs, I felt that the sound should also freshen up. I was soon in contact with Marcus Lundberg, the owner of BloodWork/SoundPark Studios i Norrköping, who was excited over the challenge of creating a new sound for Aktiv Dödshjälp. Now, with the finished product in hand, I am very glad that and very satisfied with choosing BloodWork. The album has a sound that makes the listener recognize the band. The music has developed into something new, and thanks to the new members, the band has been take to a whole new level, that weren’t possible before. The music is harder and more metal, but still has a base of crust in it. 4:48 is a record that will affect everyone that listens to it... it will knock the listener down in his shoes. Right now it is wrapped and sent out as promos to a number of Record Labels and I sit, quietly waiting for the right label to bite down into this.
