[6] In a September 2010 post on the official Fever Ray website, Karin stated that the siblings had "started playing together again", hinting that new material might be on the way.
[7] On 18 April 2011, as part of a post on their website concerning discrimination against Romani people in Europe, the Knife announced that they were recording a new album to be released in 2012.
[10] "Full of Fire" was released as the album's lead single on 28 January 2013,[12] for which a short film was directed by Stockholm and Berlin-based filmmaker and visual artist Marit Östberg.
[14] On 21 August 2014, the Knife announced that the duo would disband following the final six dates of their Shaking the Habitual Show Tour from 31 October to 8 November 2014.
"[16] The Knife played their final show, entitled Post-Colonial Gender Politics Come First, Music Comes Second, on 8 November 2014 at the Iceland Airwaves Festival in Reykjavík.
The Knife won the Swedish Grammis award for Pop Group of the Year in 2003, but they boycotted the ceremony by sending two representatives of the Guerrilla Girls, with the number 50 written on their costumes, as a protest against male dominance in the music industry.
[21] The song "We Share Our Mothers' Health" from the album was made available for free as the iTunes Store's Single of the Week in late 2006.
In a 2006 interview with Pitchfork, the Knife cited David Lynch, Aki Kaurismäki, Korean cinema, Trailer Park Boys, Donnie Darko and Doom as inspirations for their work.
[22] In addition, Karin named Sonic Youth, Kate Bush, Le Tigre and Siouxsie and the Banshees, while Olof cited techno, grime and Southern hip hop.
In a 2016 interview with The Fader, Karin related that they were at that moment working on more solo music, though they were "unsure" if it would be under the Fever Ray moniker or not.
The song "Wrap Your Arms Around Me" was used in the closing scene and credits of the episode "The Bridge" in the 2017 first season of Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale.
