Reviews:
“The first thing to praise with this album is the outstanding artwork laid out as great work of art on a multi panel Digipack. The artwork is truly clever and honestly I cannot think about any artist in the genre of dark ambient that released an album as beautiful as this.” (Chain DLK, Italy)
“The CD artwork perfectly illustrates the meaning of the work: collages in which elements are subverted our Western culture: a King Kong in the costume of Superman destroying the Empire State, decaying skeletons, a bottle of poison and a kind of spider with human head and limbs with multiple eyes (this reminds me of the end of the movie The Fly (1958), where the end is the human-headed fly trapped in a spider web). It is the world of dreams, its the collective unconscious of mental deconstruction of a world that torments us.” (Mentenembre, Portugal)
