Therion recently entered the late phases of the recording of the new album, which will be mixed at the legendary Polar Studios in Stockholm. According to a band update, "the album title will be Sitra Ahra. 13 songs are being recorded, but it is at this moment not certain which, or if all, of those will end up on the actual record."

Therion mainman Chris Johnsson briefly commented recently about the album: "Expect something spectacular, even by Therion's standards!"

Therion 2010 is completed by vocalist Thomas Vikström (ex-CANDLEMASS), drummer Johan Koleberg (ANIMAL, ZAN CLAN, LION'S SHARE) and bassist Nalle "Grizzly" Påhlsson (TREAT, ZAN CLAN, VINDICTIV).
