Album is titled TEOTWAWKI and introduces a more variating and rawer musical style, compared to it's predecessor 'Inherit The Eden', as well as a new guitarist Jussi Hämäläinen. On TEOTWAWKI, old english death doom influences and acoustic parts are accompanied by post-metallic harshness, post-rockish fragility and hard core style vocal parts. The overall sound is less keyboard orientated and unpolished.

TEOTWAWKI was mixed and mastered at Toontekning Recording in Sweden by Magnus Lindberd, whose previous works include albums for bands like Cult Of Luna and Khoma. Bassist Matti Reinola comments on the choise:
  
"It was great to get this opportunity to work with Magnus, as we really admire many of his previous works. We wanted this album to sound more dirty and harder than 'Inherit' and got exactly what we hoped for. The mix Magnus made with fully analog equipment, surely takes our music onto a new level. It's far from the tradiotal metal sound coming from Finland, which we wanted to avoid."

Lyrically TEOTWAWKI draws a gloomy image of mankind and decadence, natural disasters and the inevitable downfall.
