Marlin began work on the album with Even "Magnet" Johansen in late spring 2008. In July 2008, several Norwegian webpages announced that she was in the studio recording her fourth album.[1][2]

According to an article in Dagbladet, 16 April 2009, Twist the Truth has sold 17,000 copies since being released. The album was certified gold in Norway[3] and was confirmed by Lene on her official Myspace page.

The first single, "Here We Are", has secured Lene's comeback by remaining on the premier spot on the Norwegian National Radio Chart for two weeks. For the first time since 2003, Lene has a No. 1 hit on the radio in Norway.
