positive responses from their fans and the press. Labels tempted the band with contracts, however they chose against it.
In the summer of 2001, the band decided to take a break
from shows and rehearsal. They entered the TLS AB studio to record their newest full-length CD named Alleviation of Pain which was released on October 11, 2002.
