about

Come spring in 2018 and an official Instagram och Facebook account gave news that the band is back in the studio. The first release in 16 years will happen on the 27th of July as the song 'Surrender' will be released on digital platforms. The song is recorded at studio Space lounge, mixed in studio Jesus lo-Tech and mastrered by legendary Noel Summmerville (My Bloody Valentine, The White Stripes) .

'Surrender' is a natural sonic continuity, picking up where the last album 'Sound and Diversity' (2002, Startracks) ended. It’s a song which blends '90s indie rock, emopunk and hardcore music. The band is revolving around the local talents of Swedish high school friends.

David Lehnberg, frontman and main songwriter, formed the emopunk band Leiah in the late '90s. The band released a string of indie albums in the early 2000s and did many European tours playing shows with bands such as; At the Drive-In, Grade, The Get Up Kids, Hot Water Music & As Friends Rust. The band gained reputation of being a solid live band within the European punk and hardcore scene.

As they catapulted their way into peoples hearts they suddenly and unexpectedly disbanded in early 2004. As their their releases have become hard to come by a handful of posthumous digital releases have been granted by the band and newly released in 2018.
