"'Ingenting" (Swedish for Nothing) is a song by Swedish alternative rock band Kent from their seventh studio album, Tillbaka till samtiden . It was released as the album's lead single on 17 September 2007 through RCA Records and Sony BMG.
Anders Nunstedt of Expressen wrote: "The opening is sensational. First some chords on something that sounds like a deformed harp, then a disco beat that brings to mind old Pet Shop Boys and a synth riff that could have been signed by Depeche Mode. [...] The melody is irresistible and the lyrics, with their deep darkness and references to Hagnesta Hill, are immediately shocking. The Swedish single of the fall, without a doubt." [1]
Håkan Steen of Aftonbladet wrote: "'Ingenting' is a strikingly direct Kent single, with a disco-dance elegance that breathes early 80s and old synth heroes. The melody becomes a good friend already during the first listen." [2] Fredrik Welander of Dagens Skiva wrote: "A usual bitter view from Joakim Berg. This time over an eighties synth beat with thick polyphonic sounds, electronic handclaps and distorted guitars after the chorus. Some lost piano notes and an enticing bass." [3]
All lyrics are written by Joakim Berg.

Kent was a Swedish alternative rock band, formed in Eskilstuna in 1990. With members Joakim Berg, Martin Sköld, Sami Sirviö and Markus Mustonen, the band had numerous radio hits throughout Sweden and Scandinavia and consecutive number-one studio albums on the Sweden top list (Sverigetopplistan) beginning with the release of Verkligen (1996) and led by the single "Kräm ". With origins rooted in distorted rock, they found mainstream success through their alternative rock albums of the mid-1990s, 2000s and 2010s, the latter decades during which they adopted elements of synthpop. With eleven number-one albums, five number-one singles, 23 Swedish Grammy Awards, and over three million record sales, Kent is considered the most popular rock/pop group within Sweden and throughout Scandinavia. Vapen & ammunition (2002) topped the Swedish charts for eight weeks. Kent is often compared to bands like U2 and Coldplay.

"Always Have Always Will" is a 1998 song by Swedish pop band Ace of Base. Heavily inspired by the Motown sound of the mid-1960s, the intro samples the intros from the Supremes track "Where Did Our Love Go" and the Four Tops track "I Can't Help Myself ". It was co-written by Jonas Berggren with Mike Chapman. The song was originally titled "Killer on the Rampage" and contained different lyrics. When the song was pitched as a potential song for the upcoming Flowers/Cruel Summer album, Arista records liked the melody; however, requested that the lyrics be rewritten.
Vapen & ammunition is the fifth studio album by Swedish alternative rock band Kent. It was released on 15 April 2002 through RCA Records and BMG.

The white tiger on the cover is a tribute to the band's hometown Eskilstuna: the zoo in town had white tigers as its main attraction.
Herbert Joakim "Jocke" Berg is a Swedish singer, songwriter and musician, best known as the lead singer of Swedish Rock/Pop band Kent. Berg rarely gives interviews, saying in one: less is more. Berg has tended to write lyrics in Swedish because he wants to avoid the use of cliché-ridden English lyrics, which often happens when Swedish artists sing in English. Kent's lyrics contributed to their development from indie band to broad mass appeal as songs in Swedish are preferred among the slightly older population that Kent has attracted, according to an academic who has studied the band in their sociological and national context.
