OutlineEdit
While both Remedy Lane and Pain of Salvation's second album, One Hour by the Concrete Lake, feature a protagonist searching for self-discovery, Remedy Lane addresses a wider variety of themes, including love, loss, lust, sex and self-understanding. The album, written by guitarist and vocalist Daniel Gildenlöw, is semi-autobiographical in nature.Template:Citation needed The liner notes include poems and photos related to the concept as well as date markings to signify the chronological order of the album.Template:Citation needed Gildenlöw has said that the inspiration for Remedy Lane was an era of his life in which he wished to understand the nature of freedom.Template:Citation needed
The album's production is similar to its predecessor, The Perfect Element, part I.Template:Citation needed While its mood is dark, there are some moments of happiness.Template:Citation needed
ReissueEdit
On 1 July 2016 the band released a reissue of the album, entitled Remedy Lane Re:visited (Re:mixed & Re:lived). The 2-CD set includes a new mix of the record by longtime Pain of Salvation collaborator and mixing engineer Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios, as well as a live recording of the entire album from Pain of Salvation's performance at the ProgPower USA Festival in 2014.<ref name="SonicPerspectives">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
