Notes
Released in standard jewel case with 12-page booklet, including 8 photos by Sean Hartgrove, credits, thanks notes,
and introduction text from last page shown below:
"In a Promethean sense, man is a God. But on an even
more profound level, man is a beast. This primary
contradiction has plagued mankind for millennia. Man is
a God. Man is a beast.. These two aspects of his
personality have been waging war with one another for
countless centuries; a war whose casualties are seen
everywhere and recognised nowhere. But there exists,
however, a long forgotten place in the soul where God
and beast intersect. To go to that place is to witness the
death of one world and the birth of another...join me."
*text is given in full accordance with the booklet
Recorded at Worldwide International Studios.
After an initial ending of 'Total War' on 6:10, track 9 (35:35) continues with 3 hidden tracks:
- a sudden loud scream, starting on 15:10
- the reading of a poem, starting on 20:14
- an instrumental piece, starting on 26:13 and played until the end
*gaps between tracks are filled with silence

Reviews
As this is one of NONs important albums it should be released as vinyl 2LP in a nice gatefold cover
. I am waiting for this now for more than 20 years. Hurry up time is running out for all of us!
Why in the world was this release blocked? It's an official release.
