"During Composing I Tried Making All Songs Stylistic And Concerning The Pitch Of The Voice Much Comfortable For The Singer. I Didn't Figure Out That Beside Hearing Out The Different Styles Of The Bands The Composing And Arranging I Had Lots Of Stress While Doing Clerical Work As Mailing And Phoning. Thanks A Lot To All Singers For Good Cooperation. I Think This Compilation CD Is A Real Special And Important Project For Nuclear Blast.

For The Drums He Got A Little Help From His Good Friends Dirk Verbeuren SOILWORK SCARVE And Henry Ranta Ex-SOILWORK .
