The album's limited edition version will be released as 2CD Mediabook with a bonus disc including 7 tracks (2 covers versions and 5 live songs) and an expanded booklet. The LP format will be on 180gr. vinyl and come in gatefold packaging with a double-sided poster as well as the full standard album on CD as bonus. More details about the album formats and pre-order links will be announced soon.

Just like on their previous two album releases, Return To Zero (2010) and Earth Blues (2013), Spiritual Beggars stellar lineup is consists of bandleader Michael Amott (Arch Enemy, ex-Carcass) on guitars, teaming up with Apollo Papathanasio (ex-Firewind) on vocals, Sharlee D'Angelo (Arch Enemy, Witchery) on bass, Per Wiberg (Candlemass, ex-Opeth) on keyboards as well as Ludwig Witt (Grand Magus, Firebird) on drums.

After a busy couple of last years with Arch Enemy, Michael Amott and his bandmates have once again found the availability and inspiration to lay down 11 dynamic and uplifting new songs, which not only easily demonstrate how much on top of their game Spiritual Beggars still are after over 20 years of activities, but also add a fresh and spontaneous vibe to their impressive catalogue.
