“Septem Peccata Mortalia” is a type of songs with many various influences. The verse is difficult-hitting, like a hammer. I used to be very happy with the guitar solo on this one, I needed to pay a tribute to Andy LaRocque from King Diamond, one among my favourite guitar gamers of all time and I made a decision to place a pleasant break within the type of Metallica’s “Dyers Eve” in there as effectively. I used to be a bit skeptical at first about this music however once I heard the ultimate combine, I knew that it was a success.”
