[edit] Notes

  • The first few seconds of "Violet Tree" features a sample of audio from episode two of Serial Experiments Lain. A few seconds of opening dialogue from the same episode can be heard at the beginning of "Carresses."
  • The sampled dialog in "Facing That" comes from the film It Conquered the World.
  • On the last track, at 15:10, there is a hidden track. The hidden track of course is several minutes of static followed by a outro.
