• Kill Life, start with those amazing vocals, and probably the effect on here.
• Alone, is the track that pulled me towards this record. First line, “Once again life is killing me”, and I think, that is a very strong line. How is “life” supposed to be “killing you”. Somehow those two words weren’t supposed to be put together like that, heavy emphasis on “supposed”.
• House of Nostalgia, I love, but I forgot why.
• Love’s Burial Ground, has that amazing riff where it sounds as if the guitar is throwing up. Slave
• Forgotten Tomb MMIII, is really fun with that riff at the start. The rest of the song is just as fun, and well, I’ve always liked the slight effects on vocals. Or maybe there are no effects? In any case, I love the part at 2:53, where he goes “FORGOTTEN TOMB”, then proceeds to Forgotten Tomb all over those bad guys.

And of course I didn’t forget about the strategically placed “Malus Vivendi” tracks, which well, it feels as if though they’re giving you a break of all the hopeless doom that you’ve been listening to… However.

As one reviewer puts it, what might seem like depressive cynic nihilism to other people, if you look a bit closely, you will find that it really is the artists trying to grapple with the will to live. Trying to comprehend those two sides in your own head, one that really wants to live, and one that really, really wants you dead.

Well, if you notice a bit closely, you will find that “Alone” has quite an upbeat riff, which is why it’s been my favorite for a very long time. 4:52. That part has been stuck in my head for so long, and I tried to figure out which track had that, but I couldn’t. Listen to it, it’s hopeful. It’s upbeat. It is cathartic. And my favorite lyrics from that track is “As I try to sleep to heal this madness. But this bed now seems to be like my tomb” As someone who can’t really sleep anymore, I am basically forced to experience the madness in its full extent.
