Вот что Сантери сказал по поводу этого альбома в недавнем интервью:
ЦИТАТА(Santeri Kallio @ 11th May 2017)
For The Beginning of Times (2011), we were thinking that the songs were . . . I don’t know, Skyforger was such a big album for us and for the audience, I mean, we toured our asses off for Skyforger. I think we went, from my point of view, we went too poppy, or too mellow and mid-tempo in sound with The Beginning of Times. When we performed live, the songs were not aggressive enough. So I would say it was not Peter’s production, but the songs we ourselves were making for Circle were heavier and faster.
With Under the Red Cloud, we were going even heavier. Jens Bogren came in, and he sped up some of the songs, like in ”Bad Blood.” He suggested instead of a vocal melody, how about this grunt type vocal. That’s what the great producers do, they extend what the band wants. I think Jens heard in our demos that we were going heavier. He helped us achieve that. We were already going that way, you know, because after The Beginning of Times we couldn’t possibly go any mellower or we would be only a Hard Rock band.
