Europe has gone up IN FLAMES! »I, The Mask«, the 13th studio album from the Swedish visionaries has not only entered the official longplayer charts in Sweden and Austria at #1, but also debuted at #2 in Germany and #3 in Switzerland.
Vocalist Anders Fridén says of the new album,
“The reaction so far on ‘I, The Mask’ has been overwhelming. The vulnerability of sharing something, such as an album, that’s such a big piece of you can be simultaneously fulfilling and nerve-racking at the same time. So, having fans reach out to us online or come up to us at shows to tell us how much this record already means to them is still indescribable even after all of these years. We can’t wait to play the new songs live for the first time in EU/UK next month, and we thank Jesterheads worldwide for their continued support.”
