Background
Around this time, the band were being influenced less by metal and more by alternative, with Renkse citing Jeff Buckley, whose song "Nightmares by the Sea" was covered on this album, as well as Radiohead as examples.[3]
Renske's close friend, Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth, was present to help record, produce and work on ideas for vocal tracks.[3]
Track listing
All tracks are written by Nyström and Renkse except where noted.
| No. | Title | Length |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | "For My Demons" | 5:47 |
| 2. | "I Am Nothing" | 4:37 |
| 3. | "In Death, a Song" | 4:51 |
| 4. | "Had to (Leave)" | 6:03 |
| 5. | "This Punishment" | 2:46 |
| 6. | "Right Into the Bliss" | 5:04 |
| 7. | "No Good Can Come of This" | 4:24 |
| 8. | "Strained" | 4:15 |
| 9. | "A Darkness Coming" | 5:01 |
| 10. | "Nightmares by the Sea" (Jeff Buckley) | 4:15 |

| Total length: | 66:54 | |
The standard edition and 2003 reissue each end with a different song, but on every version the final track ends with 25 to 30 seconds of silence and a hidden track, hence there are actually two official versions of "Black Session".
