All of Us - by Blindside

All of Us - by Blindside.  After a long, long time of silence, they've resurfaced again to give us fans a picture that has what appears to be a release date for…something (single? album title? album??)…  :D
Blindside is from Stockholm, in Sweden.  They started playing music together in a youth centre in Stockholm, & the crowds they drew eventually grew to around 500 people.  In '96, they funded an demo independent demo, & debuted themselves in Sweden with a full, self-titled LP in '97.  At some point, however, Tooth & Nail Records got a hold of one of their demos, signed them, & re-released their debut later in '97.  They released 2 albums (self titled, & "A Thought Crushed My Mind") with them, but due to "lackluster sales", they were the last on Solid State (a 'daughter company' of T&N's).  Shortly after, however, they were signed to Elektra, where they have released 3 LP's, an EP, & re-releases of the albums from T&N.  However, they announced that their next release is to be the best or bust, so to speak - for over a year, there was no news, but then in November, both they and Papa Roach 'tweeted' about how Papa Roach thinks the new album is 'amazing'.  Then, just an hour or so ago, they released a picture on their Facebook page which contains the letters "wshww" & a presumed date "028/002/011".  This song is from their 2nd release on Elektra, "About a Burning Fire", released Feb. 24th, 2004.
Here's the music video for the song..:
