Lyrical content
The lyrics on Blood & Fire deal with personal issues that vocalist Dan Weydant was dealing with at the time they were written. The song "To Think Of You Is To Treasure An Absent Memory", deals with the suffering, and untimely deaths of Weydant's friends and stepbrother. "Lies of Serpents" and "Ravage Ritual" both deal with hypocrisy in the Christian church.
