Comentario del artista:
The end of the world is a pretty big deal. Maybe not in the grand scheme of everything in SBURB, but this is still the apocalypse we're talking about! It's loud, it's powerful, and it stops for no one, so you'd better be ready for it. This piece revolves around the anticipation of a timer constantly ticking towards turmoil, as well as the frantic nature of the whole puzzling process that must be completed while proximate meteors rain down in a destructive deluge. It is a chaotic cataclysm that builds up and up as the remaining minutes drain away - the countdown timer continues its steady death march until the very last second, when the hour is met and the final bell is struck.
Also, there are references to each of the Homestuck kids' medium entry songs inserted throughout, though not all are obvious.
Unlike the other two pieces I made for this album, I didn't plan this one out at all! Luckily, the awesome folks in the chat space had ideas to spare about what Imbrog's totem lathe item should be. Thanks to them, Imbrog the SBURB Player will have to compose for his life before that meteor destroys everything he loves.
