In 2009, a video for the new song Pandora was recorded.
In April 2012, the band recorded two new songs, Magija ("Magic") dedicated to the late Ronnie James Dio, and Dodaj gas ("Pedal to the Metal") announcing the band's sixth studio album.

Ranjena zver
Kraljevski Apartman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Koja razdvaja dobro od zla
Ja znam da se borim al' ipak se bojim
Jer djavo nikad ne spava
U ocima tvojim vidim svu bol
Sve tragove besane noci
A mozda ce jednom I ranjena zver
Doslo je vreme sada zveri vladaju
I nista nije k'o pre
Mozda sad mirno spavaju
Al' kakve snove sanjaju
Nikad ne diraj, ne budi ranjena zver
U svakom od nas skriva se zlo
Negde duboko u srcu
Kad padne ti mrak kad osetis strah
Tad izlazi ranjena zver... ranjena zver
The lyrics in Kraljevski Apartman's song Ranjena zver speak volumes about the struggle we all face within ourselves, between good and evil. The first stanza introduces the idea of an invisible line that separates good from evil, and acknowledges that even though the singer knows how to fight, they are still afraid, because the devil never sleeps. This is a metaphor for the internal struggle we all face, between our better and worse selves.
In the second stanza, the focus shifts to the singer's partner or love interest, whose eyes are full of pain and traces of sleepless nights. The third and final stanza brings it all together and provides the song title, by mentioning the "injured beast" that lurks within all of us, waiting to be unleashed in moments of darkness and fear. The chorus implores us to not awaken that beast, as it could lead to disastrous consequences.
The song's lyrics are a poetic and powerful reminder to be mindful of our own inner struggles and to not give into our baser impulses. It recognizes the complexities of human nature and the importance of self-control.

Tanka je linija, nevidljiva nit
The line that separates good from evil is thin and imperceptible
Koja razdvaja dobro od zla
It separates good from evil
Ja znam da se borim al' ipak se bojim
Although I know how to fight, I am still afraid
Jer djavo nikad ne spava
Because the devil never sleeps
U ocima tvojim vidim svu bol
I see all the pain in your eyes
Sve tragove besane noci
All the traces of sleepless nights
A mozda ce jednom I ranjena zver
And maybe one day even a wounded beast
Na tvoja vrata doci
Will come to your door
Doslo je vreme sada zveri vladaju
The time has come, the beasts now rule
I nista nije k'o pre
And nothing is as it was before
Mozda sad mirno spavaju
Maybe they sleep peacefully now
Al' kakve snove sanjaju
But what kind of dreams do they have?
Nikad ne diraj, ne budi ranjena zver
Never touch, never wake a wounded beast
U svakom od nas skriva se zlo
Evil lurks in each of us
Negde duboko u srcu
Somewhere deep in our hearts
Kad padne ti mrak kad osetis strah
When darkness falls and you feel scared
Tad izlazi ranjena zver... ranjena zver
Then a wounded beast emerges... a wounded beast
