Weird track, not very memorable.

I liked it. I think putting easy bathroom jokes aside, the title is sort of Geogaddi-esque in that it feels like a combination of terms that makes me think of "Uranium Enrichment Ritual", tying into the nuclear theme here.

I can certainly say I felt where this was coming from - had a real classic sound to it, in addition to being cinematic as many of these type of pieces were.

Best vignette of TH? Don't know yet, but could be... I note, I also thought Collapse and Telepath were very good tracks - there's not all that much between them...

I don't think I've read one positive post from you on here. Why did you join this forum?

It's like the bastard child of XYZ and the intro to Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Sensational little interlude track.

i agree. one of the stand-outs for me. sounds like the minor is being interrupted by a alarm inside the melody. as though faltering forward across a bleak landscape... an air raid siren in the distance... sorta thing. really amazed by the entire album. 'palace posy', 'cold earth' and 'nothing is real' were also mind-blowing.

I just see it as a play on 'a ritual' which usually sounds like 'uh-ritual' hence 'uritual'.

Yeah, best interlude on the album imo...Could be interpreted as Ur-ritual, like Mesopotamia Ur, Ziggurats of Ur, etc...

It's like some kind of demonic didgeridoo.

Is it just me, or does this track have Jacquard tones underneath it?

Hottest didgeridoo track of 2013

Yes, I think that little 3-tone melody appears in Jacquard too.

I really like this.

I think all the vignette tracks on this album are aces though.

Though for me Telepath=Uritual>Transmisiones Ferox

It's a Jacquard reprise. Love that 3-tone progression.

This totally sounds like the descendant of House of Abin'adab and Circle.
