Background


Before recording the album, the band began touring followed by Russia in 1994. The following year, they focus at their new studio in Los Angeles with new songs composed, many of them written by the duo of Alain Johannes and Natasha Shneider from Eleven band.

Shortly before the recording began, the band incorporates a keyboardist, Nikolai Kuzminih, due to the evolution to a more progressive rock style. At the same time, they invited English session guitarist Allan Holdsworth and drummer Ron Powel. Back in Russia, the mix was made by Erwin Musper at the GDRZ Studio-5 with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra.

The third album was released on May 20, 1996, followed by a great tour by Russia, featuring an image and sound more mature and contemporary. However, the album was a resounding commercial failure outside their native country, in a world dominated by other musical genres.

Four music videos was made for the album: "Stare", "Stop the World I Want to Get Off", "Ocean" and "Scared", which was directed by Sergei Bazhenov.
