Background

Soon after recording Based on Evil with Flemming Rasmussen of Metallica fame, Tantara landed a contract with recording label Ultimhate Records^[2] to release the album on March 23, 2012.^[3] However, when the release date arrived, the album was nowhere to be found as Ultimhate Records had failed to release the album. The band parted ways with the label and signed a contract with Indie Recordings. The album was successfully released on 24 August 2012.
