I love this song :D

The buildup with the violins around 7 mins (apprx) is wonderful. That is sort of the sound Yndi Halda went with; the violin heavy post rock.

Thoughts?

Neither, it's on fainfinitysignnumbersignwhateverelse.

This song is set up perfectly by Dead Flag Blues, too, which is even more haunting.

Honestly, I think the build up in EH is even better than the climax. Just the process of the song getting to that ultimate point of explosion is fraught with tension. It's an awesome song.
