Top tracks — play these first

  • →
    Come Night Come Evil — The opening track establishes the record’s theatrical darkness from the outset and introduces the longer song format that characterizes much of the album.
  • →
    Eye for an Eye — At six minutes, the title track is the album’s longest piece and gives its central image of retaliation room to unfold.
  • →
    Sol Et Luna — At just over a minute, this brief piece provides a change of scale between the longer songs surrounding it.
  • →
    Sail Away — The nearly six-minute closer gives the album an extended final chapter rather than ending with another short interlude.
