Inspiration

Despite claims to the contrary, the album is not a concept album, although several songs are based on the last days of Jesus Christ:

  • "The Last Supper", about the last supper of Jesus Christ and the treachery of Judas
  • "Soul Savior", about Christianity
  • "Crucified", about the feeling of Jesus when he was crucified
  • "Divided Cross", about the time when Jesus was crucified and the feelings of the people
  • "Always and Eternally", about the memories and belief that remains after Christ died
gollark: Well, because I inconsistently jump around between various things, and use tabs as markers of "look at this at some point".
gollark: Big difference.
gollark: I don't have *100*, I have *310ish*.
gollark: But they *do* run in the background, to some extent.
gollark: I have an addon called "tab suspender" which lets me manually unload tabs to save RAM and let me have hundreds without problems.
