about

This was a deeply person project for me, and in a lot of ways was the culmination of a kind of developmental cocooning I'd been going through since 2007.

I was never public about the subject matter of the album.
It actually is meant to tell the story of a child, dying from a terminal illness, he goes into a coma, while in this coma, he journeys into his own unconscious where he end's up fighting a literal battle against his own inner demons in a grand arena in the middle of a giant neo-tokyo kind of cyber metropolis. Upon acheiving victory, he is able to awake from the coma, and say goodbye to his family, before finally succumbing.

At this point, his spirit leaves his body and travels across the entire span of the universe to the very source of all life and returns to rejoin this source and reach the next plane of existence.
