Du & jag döden (Swedish for You & Me Death) is the sixth studio album by Swedish alternative rock band Kent. It was released on March 15, 2005 through RCA Records and Sony BMG. As the title implies, death is a major theme of the album which, before its release, was described by the band as dark and depressing; in keeping with this, the plastic album cover and the playable side of the CD are both black. The album debuted at number one in Sweden and Norway, and at number two in Denmark and Finland.[7] As of 2007 the album had sold 220.000 copies worldwide.[8]
