February 28, 1986 is one of the darkest days in the history of the 20th century, not only in Sweden but in almost the entire world. It was the date on which Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme was shot dead in the street after a visit to the cinema. To this day, neither the perpetrator nor the background to the attack have been identified.

For his international commitment to disarmament, understanding and social justice, Olof Palme enjoys a high reputation to this day. For singer Nils Patrik Johansson (Astral Doors / Lion's Share / Civil War) it has been a special wish for a long time to deal musically with the subject of the attack. The concept album which will be released on 28.02.2020 at Metalville Records is also the most serious project in NP Johansson's long career.

In a short video, shot at the original site of the assassination, the artist explains his motives for the upcoming release of the album.

Further information on this extraordinary project will follow shortly.
