"Strangler" comes from Figure Number Five, Soilwork's fifth studio album, which Nuclear Blast released on 22 April 2003, the record where the Swedish melodic death metal crew let more alternative metal into their attack. Peter Wichers wrote the music and Björn Strid the words, and Strid sings it.

Wichers and Ola Frenning handle the electric guitars, Ola Flink plays bass, Sven Karlsson keyboards and Henry Ranta drums, on what turned out to be Ranta's last Soilwork album before he left. The band produced it, with Patrik J. Sten co-producing and recording the vocals and bass; Daniel Bergstrand tracked the drums, Wichers and Rickard Larsson took care of the guitars and keyboards, and Fredrik Nordström mixed it with Sten and the band.
