Epilogue - Time (Track 13 of 16)

Aaron:

OH GOD.

As this is my first entry, I'm going to keep it pretty simple, but what the hell did I just listen to? It starts of fairly normal and then devolves into a
trippy mass of repeating words and scary electric nonsense for the last 11 seconds with no sense of music or direction and then at its peak, it just CUTS OFF.

Favorite part of the song is easily the random deep voice going "21st Century" randomly in the middle of the song. Also, why is this song called "Epilogue" if there are 3 more songs on the album? That's just wrong. Do you have any opinions on this blatant misuse of song titling, Ethan?


Ha! That was easy. Doing this 141 times should be a breeze! Bring it!

Ethan:
The song is called epilogue, and yet... it begins our journey. Ironic no? (heh!).
Aaron, my brother, you ask "what the hell you listened to", but in truth the answer is simple. The chaos of the song represents the chaos of lives. Spiraling onward through "time" and "sorrow" . It is only as we reach the ends of our lives, where the chaos transforms into something understandable and orderly. Then, eventually, like our own lives, it all ends. Suddenly. With no explanation. With no warning. The song title, "Epilogue", is the definition of irony. For in our lives, we have no epilogue. Just silence.
