The band comments:
"2012 has been a great year for us so far. Besides two successful tours and chart entries in Europe and North America we were extremely thrilled to see the amazing reception "TIME I" got in our native Finland. We're feeling really honoured for the Emma nomination and want to thank everybody who has supported us and made it possible!"
