[[Image:Sol1.png|thumb|left|120px|The cover art for SymphonyOfLife.]] The fifth album, Symphony Of Life, was originally titled Franc-Tireur, but was changed to its current title after it was deemed that the name would pose a language barrier and would therefore not connect with many fans. However, a track of the same name is on the final tracklisting. The album was originally planned to be released in December 2012, however it was pushed back to February 2013 due to the initial album rejected by the label. New songs were recorded, as well as songs from previous recording sessions which appeared on other albums or as singles, which were brought onto the tracklisting.
