(li "The Ritual Aura - Keeing III: Dreamer's End") "Death metal. Might give myself whiplash, and guitar may be as edgy as the lyrics, but it tends to be very poetic. May be a reference to Elder Scrolls Morrowind, which I haven't played but should." (li "TOOL - Rosetta Stoned") "Rock; about psychedeilc visions of alien contact and supposed purpose.
