Listening to Deconstruction on in-ear headphones... Mobile phone rings so I pause the album and take the headphones out to answer the phone. 'Bout ten minutes later my left ear feels a bit warm and weird so I rub it once or twice and there's quite a lot of blood on my hand.

So yeah. Decon literally destroys my ears.

Stop using in-ear headphones. Making a health reference here would be redundant considering that you have ear blood.

While we're talking about connections to other songs, underneath this part of Planet of the Apes

Worlds away, sun it glows...
Hearts fade to grey summer shows...

The melody (not the vocal melody) is the same progression as A Monday. I nearly shat myself when I caught that one.

Oh man, I can't believed I hadn't noticed it!
Awesome.

Ok so far my list is as follows.

Disruptr
A Monday
Numbered!
Awake!
Ki
Omnidimensional Creator
Solar Winds
Processional

Any other references to previous material on Deconstruction?

The whole, "One is all collective", bit could be linked to Triumph, but it's a bit of a stretch.

In Pandemic where Dev says
"All is calm, all is well!
A LIFE WORTH WAITING FOR!
ALL is rooted, in INFINITE CHAOS!
CHOOSE YOUR PERSPECTIVE!!!"

reminds my heavily of Critic

wheres the solar winds cameo?

i hear a subtle similarity in 8:26-9:00 of planet of the apes and the guitar in syl's 'last minute' from about 0:43. possibly my favourite bit in pota

i have to admit.. fucking epic dev good job.. i hope to see ya in Winnipeg and im preordering both on the 16th. hopefully it goes over smoother than addicted's preorder. so hope to see ya there.


and as for the similarity's yes there is a lot and its awesome.

I just got through it for the first time... and I really, truly do not know how to express in words what I just experienced. The only thing I can really say at this point in time is that I am going to need to listen to it a few more times... take some time to process... I understand why this was #3 and Ghost is 4!

The whole, "One is all collective", bit could be linked to Triumph, but it's a bit of a stretch.

Was thinking the exact same thing. And as for the "A Monday" melody, absolutely wild since that moment in Planet of the Apes is definitely a Top 3 moment for me on the entire album! Something about it that makes it so uplifting!

anybody else getting a serious "Death Of Music" vibe from "Praise The Lowered" ?

I can't calm down or focus on anything after listening to Decon, thoughts flying all over the place.
Also listening to it late at night is a very bad idea, you won't sleep a wink!

Don't worry, you're just suffering a brain haemorrhage. Quite normal when listening to this album. To overcome this you may want to turn up the volume so the music can get through all that blood.
