== Writing and recording ==
The first single from the album is "Revolution, Baby." It appeared first on May 5 on Bandit Rock Radio and was then released to iTunes on May 7. Karin announced on the band's official Twitter page that the music video for "Revolution, Baby" would also be released on May 7; this would later appear to be false information since the video was never released on that date. If it has been delayed or if it simply was a rumor is still to be announced. On April 16, the video shoot for the music video took place. The director for the shoot was again director Patric Ullaeus who has worked before with the band on several other music videos. The video for "Revolution, Baby" was released to the public on May 17.{{Citation needed|date=August 2010}}
