Nicke Borg, Dregen, Johan Blomqvist and Peder Carlsson are back after what was expected to be a brief hiatus began in 2009 and only recently finished. Their last studio album was 2008's self-titled work, followed in 2009 with 20th anniversary compilation Them XX.
Frontman Borg says: "The break has developed us individually as songwriters and musicians, and we've come up with what we feel is our strongest material to date.
"For the first time we've had the chance to look back on our catalogue, and get a firm grip on why our audience - and ourselves, for that matter - loves Backyard Babies so f***ing much.
"It's been a mixture of personal development and finding our way back to the band's essence." Read more here.
