Background

Speaking to Metal Forces magazine, vocalist Aaron Stainthorpe said, "[the songs are] very similar to 'A Map of All Our Failures', because they were written and recorded at the same time, except for one song. That really stands out… [laughs] It's full-on sort of epic death metal; it's swords and axes, a proper warrior battle kind of track that's almost medieval in flavor. You can almost picture the scene; it's set in a snowy kind of mountainous landscape. There are sound effects and all sorts of mayhem going on in it, and death metal vocals not quite all the way through it, but near enough. It even has a Swedish title which because my Swedish isn't great, I'm not gonna repeat here. [laughs] I need to get the pronunciation right before I do that."

The album's title track was made available to stream from Soundcloud by Terrorizer magazine. Stainthorpe has announced that a music video for the title track is being produced.
