February 9, tAKiDA, one of Sweden’s largest and most successful rock bands, finally revealed their massive ninth studio album and Napalm Records debut, The agony flame! In celebration of the release, the quintet have unveiled their brand-new fourth single, “On the line”. The track presents fast-paced melody and intense vocals – building a highly-infectious hymn alongside its official music video.
tAKiDA will soon kick off their 2024 “Smoke & Mirrors Tour”, including an extended run through several major cities in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Starting on April 2 in Offenbach, Germany, the band will be supported by the English band Those Damn Crows. Tickets are on sale now.
Ever since their start in 1999 and breaking into the scene with their first studio album, Make You Breathe (2006), tAKiDA has become one of Sweden’s top-notch export, garnering mind-blowing success in their home country with six platinum singles (one of them 4x platinum), three platinum albums and five #1 albums. In 2023, tAKiDA’s recent singles, cut from the upcoming album The agony flame, have exceeded the already extremely well-accomplished band’s previous international radio chart success, with “The loneliest hour” hitting #1 on German Rock Airplay Charts, and “Third strike” added to daily rotation at Antyradio – Poland’s biggest and most important rock radio channel. In summer 2023, tAKiDA conquered the mainstage of the legendary Wacken Open Air, performing in front of twenty thousand people. With the release of The agony flame in 2024, tAKiDA will not only celebrate 25 years of band history, but surpass their current success without the shadow of a doubt.
tAKiDA on The agony flame: “The agony flame is our “now or never”-album and you’re free to interpret that however you want. Hope you’ll like it.”
