In 2020, Skambankt planned to go into the studio and record another rock album. Just a week before, they put those plans on hold and decided to go for a more pandemic-friendly album instead, which would work for a sitting audience as well. The cover photo, taken by Morten Tellefsen, was selected from the entries in a photo competition.
The first single "SOS" was released on October 16, 2020, the second single "Hadde eg bare visst" followed on December 9, and on January 8, Skambankt released "10/10" as the last pre-release single.

Originally, the plan was to record a few demos - but then this song worked so well that Skambankt decided to release it right away. First it was given away to some fans through a competition on the band's Facebook site, but a few days later, it was released as digital single.

Skambankt's fourth album is the first album to be released with Sony Music. It was recorded in February 2010 at Athletic Sound in Halden, and mixed by Jørgen Træen in Bergen. The working title "Åndelig terror" ("Spiritual Terror") stemmed from a quote by a senior citizen when she was presented with a sample of Skambankt's music... The final title, however, was chosen because the album was recorded mostly late at night, because this is the time when new ideas develop. The first single "Mantra" was released on May 17.

In contrast to the previous records, Skambankt did everything themselves - with Tollak Friestad on the levers and Terje Winterstø Røthing listed as the producer. The drums were partly recorded in a church to make them sound pompeous and heavy, and this is the first album where Skambankt experimenced a bit with other instruments, like timbals and brass. The first single Malin was released in October 2008, and in January 2009, Skambankt published a video for the song "O Dessverre".
