Artist commentary:

horizon: (composer, booklet commentary)

As a theme for the Disciple/Signless(Sufferer) pairing, I wanted the song to be haunting, cold, and foreboding, but still beautiful and rich.

The word confinis is latin for "beside" or "adjacent to" -- in astrology, it is another word for semisextile, which is an aspect of 30°. Such angles only occur when two planets are in two signs next to each other; in this case I'm referring to Cancer and Leo. The song (and image, for that matter) both follow this concept of 'togetherness', no matter what may face them -- and you'll see that The Disciple keeps her promise, as she is found in our night sky beside the prophet Cancerian.

Brad Griffin: (booklet editor)

Don't see much art or songs for the Ancestors.
Both are pretty.
