To be well adjusted in this system is to be oblivious and unfeeling. Here, where martyrs, slaves, and pharmakos are not eradicated, but simply called by another name. It is for all those ostracized by and isolated from a totality which chews them up alive in a self-cannibalizing caste system. This album is dedicated to all who were lost to their own demise, all who have been institutionalized whether in prison, psychiatric facilities, or drug rehabilitation. Those who see beyond the veil need to obscure the horrid sight by any means necessary, but respite is always brief- nothing can dampen the glare from behind the veil. Those that pit them against each other grin from the sidelines, bellies full.

The album was recorded by Ben Greenberg (Uniform) and is the first Pharmakon album recorded live in studio. Each of the five songs echoes a stage of grief associated with this cyclical chamber of self-destruction and the chaos surrounding us that leads us to devour ourselves in an attempt to balance the agony.
