	<description><![CDATA[In the (what seems like a very long) wait for the new The Tough Alliance album, singer Erik Berglund has dropped this gem upon the collective lap of the music community which finds him honing his full-time band's dance-pop even further over the course of the eight tracks presented here. Varying in texture that transitions through various depths, "Illuminata" and "White magic" are dance floor-ready party jams, whilst the closing track "Den blomstertid nu kommer" is a slightly tepid, reflective number comprised of mostly live instrumentation. Although some may complain that eight tracks is a bit short, it is not reflected on its output -- in fact, what Berglund has done, is take the genre of dance-pop his compatriots have been producing over the past couple of years, and hone it into what is easily the best album of its kind in recent memory.]]></description>
