Guest singers on the album include Doogie White (RAINBOW, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN),Ian Parry (ELEGY, CONSORTIUM PROJECT),Kenny Lubcke (NARITA) and Henrik Brockmann (ex-ROYAL HUNT, EVIL MASQUERADE).

ROYAL HUNT's entire back catalogue will be re-released this spring. All albums ("Land of Broken Hearts", "Clown in the Mirror", "Moving Target", "1996", "Paradox", "Closing the Chapter", "Fear", "The Mission", "Eyewitness", "Paper Blood") have been re-mastered by Andr Andersen and Jan Eliasson at Audio Planet Mastering and will include bonus tracks (except for the live recordings).
