"For me personally, SOLACE stands for the ups and downs of the last two years. While the world seemed to stand still, the album gave us the feeling of progressing. With SOLACE we were able to create something that would still be present after the pandemic and that gave us hope and made us look positively into the future. I hope that we can give the listeners exactly this positive feeling and we can't wait to bring the new songs on stage." - Lela (vocals)
"Today is a special day for us as our second album finally sees the light of day and I am glad that I can celebrate this event with all of our friends around the world! There's so much energy, love, anger and personal stuff in SOLACE that I'm already looking forward to every single person listening to the album." - Robin (vocals)
"Now it’s time to stop this masquerade
Now it’s time to end this madness
Now it’s time to stop this masquerade
Now the time has come"
