The basic tracks for Cabin Fever were recorded at a cabin, deep in the swedish forests, with nothing more but a simple multi-tracker and a microphone. Overdubbing was added later in the progress. The idea for the album was to go into the wild "empty-handed", start writing songs and to record them straight afterwards, which turned out to be a quite productive workflow...

However, in the beginning, it was supposed to be a "one voice - two guitars" setup, but the songs demanded further arrangements. In the end, Cabin Fever became a link between the sparsely arranged Just Like The Sun and the "eight guitars are not enough" - album One Hour Therapy, with arrangements somewhere in between those two albums.

The Lost Stories About Christmas was originally planned as a 4-6 track mini album featuring unusual christmas songs. A lot of songs were in the making, but never got to a final stage. Shortly before Cabin Fever was finished, Ben dropped the mini album idea and put the two finished songs as bonus tracks on the album.
