Greenleaf contributed the single track, " Another Brick in the Wall, Pt. 3 / Goodbye Cruel World" which combined the final two tracks from side two of the original album. In a statement shared with Ultimate Classic Rock, Magnetic Eye Records said, "''The Wall edux' isn't a tribute album, but a powerful musical statement that's certainly appropriate at a cultural moment when the themes of separatism, alienation and divisiveness set forth by Roger Waters and company are more relevant than ever."


''The Head & The Habit'' (2024–present)

The album ''The Head & The Habit'' was released June 21, 2024. The first single released for the album was "Breathe, Breathe Out". Vocalist Arvid Hällagård commented on the theme of the song and album saying it "encourages embracing one’s current state, appreciating what you have, and navigating through life with a sense of control and acceptance." It was released on LP, CD, and digital formats. Providing the lead in the production of the album was Karl Daniel Liden whom guitarist Tommi Holappa referred to as an honorary "fifth member" of the band. They also broke the album into two parts stating that the "tracklist for this album was decided with the idea of vinyl in mind, because we wanted two sides, both of which ended with a softer song".
