Recording
Vocalist-keyboardist Rowan London has stated about the album:
<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />
I should feel a sense of dread offering up something so atypical for us to be interrogated and scrutinized. But the fearlessness that we inhabited while writing Fortissimo and the Requiem series survives to see its unveiling. An album not so much about death as the absence of life; it's damn heavy but its countenance is far more brutal than its sound could ever be. Long live the "death choir".
