“I needed to do one thing particular and I’ve by no means completed a spoken phrase recitation of the lyrics, and I assumed it may be sort of cool to have it on the B-side of ‘Vilified,’” Cantrell remembers in a latest interview with Scott Lipps. “I assumed perhaps it wants some music or one thing, and I used to be sitting there with Maxwell Urasky, my demo accomplice. He is a extremely proficient musician, and he stated ‘Let me fiddle with it for an evening.’
“He got here again the subsequent day with that piece of music, and it sounded killer. I introduced it in to Joe Barresi and he stated, ‘Man, it’s best to do that with all of them.’ I bought this artistic stew going of sending the lyrics out to individuals, having them provide you with the music, and sending it again. We ended up with 9 items of actually attention-grabbing takes on the lyrics, however the music is completed by artistic companions of mine, and it has nothing to do with the true music, so it’s actually a standalone piece.”
