"The Agony Flame" CD by Takida

tAKiDA, one of the most successful Swedish Rock bands of the present, is releasing their highly anticipated new studio Album and Napalm Records debut, 'The Agony Flame,' on February 9, 2024! Founded in 1999, tAKiDA has reached the top of the Swedish Rock scene with six platinum singles (one of them 4x platinum), three platinum Albums, and no less than five #1 Albums. In 2023, the band embarked on their biggest tour to date, performing in large arena shows in their home country and major festival appearances, including a show on the Wacken Mainstage. 'The Agony Flame' is the follow-up to their 2021 Album 'Falling from Fame,' which helped tAKiDA build a large international fan base, especially in the German-speaking region, that will continue to grow with the new Album.

'The Agony Flame' represents the unmistakable and established tAKiDA sound with infectious big choruses and bittersweet melodies, specifically highlighting Robert Petterson's vocals on a new level. Throughout their successful career, tAKiDA has consistently dominated radio airplay charts, as exemplified by their single 'The Loneliest Hour,' which shot straight to #1 on the German Rock radio airplay charts and is their biggest success on German radio to date. In typical tAKiDA fashion, songs like 'Your Blood Awaits You,' 'Third Strike,' and 'On the Line' are filled with emotions and have the potential to become future hits.

After more than two decades since the band's formation, tAKiDA's Rock with pop influences shines brightly on the new Album. With 'The Agony Flame,' the Swedes are conquering the international Rock scene!
