From liner notes:
Now that science has helped us to overcome the awe of the unknown in nature, we are the slaves of social pressures of our own making. When called upon to act independently, we cry for patterns, systems, and authorities. If by enlightenment and intellectual progress we mean the freeing of man from superstitious belief in evil forces, in demons and fairies, in blind fate-in short, the emancipation from fear-then denunciation of what is currently called reason is the greatest service reason can render. Max Horkheimer.
Incidental info:
Released as a standard Digipak.
One thing that i hope he will change in the future is not to use a sample too much. There is a strange pop like sound in the breaks that gets a bit overused.
But great album.
