Vapen & ammunition (Swedish for Weapons & Ammunition) is the fifth studio album by Swedish alternative rock band Kent. It was released on 15 April 2002 through RCA Records and BMG. The white tiger on the album cover is a tribute to the band's hometown Eskilstuna: Parken Zoo had white tigers as its main attraction. Vapen & ammunition was voted Best Album of 2002 on the Grammis awards, the Swedish equivalent to the Grammy. It is the best-selling album by Kent. In an interview in January 2003, Berg spoke about the great success of Vapen & ammunition: "What exists is a self-confidence underpinned by many years of work, a certainty that we know the art, know the craft, we can redo it and more than that, we can do it better. But that in itself is no guarantee that the commercial success can be surpassed. What happened to us may never happen again. Regardless of whether we make the best album in world history next time. It's not really about that. It's more about timing, releasing the right kind of album at the right kind of time. Last year I kind of had to shake myself up and think: Enjoy! This is maybe once in a lifetime. Maybe this will be the best year of my life. It gives strange perspectives. At the same time, it is a depressing thought."
