"I take constant anxiety that the record won't sell. We hope we appeal to not only people of this generation, only people of future generations. We're trying to do something that's timeless and timely. Something that's culturally significant. To have it overlooked would exist, for me, a nightmare."[two]
Pattern [edit]

Given the improbability of the job, illustrator Cyril Van Der Haegen was hired to paint Keely's design and tweak diverse elements.[4] Keely likewise summarized the theme of the collage:
"I wanted an allegory depicting the history of human disharmonize. I wanted everybody to be fighting, like in Marvel Comics' Secret Wars, where all the superheroes are fighting each other. I actually wanted to sneak in one of the New Mutants."[5]

Rail information [edit]
"Ode to Isis" [edit]
The whole song follows a blueprint of three bars of 5/four followed past ane bar of six/4. It starts at a soft volume with only a pianoforte, builds in volume and intensity, comes to include strings, and operatic-mode singing, and ends with a woman'southward shrill scream. The melody stays essentially the same throughout the whole song and from bar to bar, the merely deviation existence the last quarter note of the 6/4 phrases. The vocal starts with the basic melody played staccato on the lower cease of the piano's register. Tom-tom drums, a tambourine, singing and strings begin quietly at the start of the second tune cycle and steadily grow in intensity and volume throughout the whole song. The muted screams of women can exist heard throughout the latter half of the song. At the very end of the vocal, a adult female's vox starts in the left channel and ends in the correct every bit she says the name of the band. Aside from this spoken phrase, the lyrics are:
- Isis, Horus, Ra, Fix
- Isis, Horus, Ra, Set
- Isis, Horus, Ra, Set
- Isis, Horus, Anubis
"Will You Smile Over again?" [edit]
"Will Y'all Smile Over again?" is about "the thought of the composer who is unable or unwilling to face up the weight of their ain genius, and allow their fears to stop them from accomplishing neat piece of work." The band wanted a pic of Brian Wilson, who was releasing Smile at the time, to accompany the song on the CD artwork. However, an art director at Interscope Records said they couldn't, and and so a motion picture of Bach appears instead.[26]

It makes explicit reference to the September eleven, 2001 attacks with the lyrics "How they express joy as nosotros shovel the ashes / Of the twin towers. / Blood and death, we will pay dorsum the debt / Of this candy shop of ours." These lyrics are also briefly heard in a chanted reprise of this song, at the finish of 'The All-time'.
