sorry, I'm not hosting it as an mp3 on this site cause I've gotten a bit paranoid. Also sorry for Myspace's sound quality(and sorry for linking to my myspace), but please tell me what you think?

The song is about being unable to excape from your own blood.

I like it man...

very nice cluttery beginning. and an interesting topic. do you remember how you came across this thought? what incited you?

the panning of guitar(?) is beautifully done and makes me think of a large hall full of sound.

I can't remember exactly what inspired it but I remember a few months ago in one of my art classes the teacher said something about this painting in the early 1900s(or late 1800s) where the location was depicted from high in the air, and people were shown as just dots. And the teacher said something to the effect of "people thought this was outrageous to show people with such a low amount of detail, they thought it would mean a lack of respect for human life in society, which of course was ridiculous" and I thought "wait thats not ridiculous, this is before both world wars and the holocaust and all that"

so I think that may have kickstarted the idea.
