So this had to become the new album title. Because it changes everything for us, our whole worldview collapses once you accept these facts and integrate them in your lives. Also, it shows that we can create or at least influence matter with our thoughts… a very interesting fact. It proves that we are all connected to each other on subatomic level. The album title, Design Your Universe, deals with new breakthroughs in quantum physics. The band's previous album, The Divine Conspiracy, was dealing with the idea that God created many religions and that it was to man to understand that they are all the same, and this album will be dealing with the power of thoughts and imaginations, as Mark Jansen stated: The band entered Gate Studio in Wolfsburg, Germany on 2 March 2009 to start recording the album with usual collaborators Sascha Paeth, Amanda Somerville and Michael 'Miro' Rodenberg.
