The album marks a dramatic shift in tone for the band. The sound is more raw, there are fewer driving rock songs, and it concludes with three consecutive ballads.

gollark: `MOVI E0 FF C0`, for example, sets `re` (register 14) to `ffc0`.
gollark: I have added a thing which sets registers to a constant.
gollark: The "use case" is a random fun feature in potatOS.
gollark: ```lualocal function init(code) -- preallocate 64KiB of memory -- 64KiB is enough for anyone -- (TODO: allow moar somehow?) local memory = fill_arr(65536, 0) -- load code into memory, at start for i = 1, #code do memory[i] = code:byte(i) end return { memory = memory, registers = fill_arr(17, 0) }end```
gollark: Well, I decided to not have ROM and to dump program code into memory starting from location `0` because WHY NOT.
