Yeah I think it's safe to say Tape 05 is not on the album, with these two tracks having been officially released on all platforms but no Tape 05

Again if you listen closely, tape 5 is intermission between introit and the start of Prophecy. So technically it's there

So far I have:

End
Nothingness
Comes to the greater awareness of the self
Divine Intellect
I am the truth ???
The pullstring? posturing? of reality
Consciousness
I am god, the ultimate resonance
Spirit
I am the soul respecting?
Conscious transcendence force
See C-C-C-Consciousness
Power
This insensitive ?? of the modern world
It's time to take you out in nature
Synchronicity
Consciousness has operational effect, alt? effect
Nothingness
The absolute truth

Feel free to chip in with the parts I can't decipher some of them are quite hard to parse

Edit: fixed some lines with some help from TMW discord

I like this thanks - added to bandcamp wishlist!

μasch wrote:Oh and idk if this was already said before, but 1420 MHz is the frequency of the Wow! signal. So i guess Inferno has some space themes in it, but with the whole "god the ultimate resonance" theme, i think the overall album is aiming towards the vibes of cults that mixed space, science and religion in weird mixed ideologies, kinda like Heaven's Gate or Raëlism

No way, jose! Just wait for the full album - I guarantee we'll get some of that good old-fashioned sound degradation in some of the darker-themed tracks! In the last half of the album... I'd bet my paycheque on it.

Hey, you're very welcome!

It's a stellar album, and was WAY ahead of it's time. Sounds more like music produced in 2008, as opposed to 1997.

Same goes if you pre-ordered on Bandcamp

Everyone on reddit is complaining about the vocals and comparing it to synthwave... I understand that it's hard to meet expectations after 13 years but the brothers delivered and it personally exceeded my expectations for a single release.

I'm grateful that after 13 years of lurking on here there's still a lot of real fans who appreciate that we even got new BOC and seem to have a deep understanding of their sound.
