In the course of an hour, four musical pieces set themselves apart from the catalogs of both individual bands and branch into new territory all the while threaded to the original encounter. Over the album a cyclical world unfolds in which different perspectives of how various forms of worship empower, eclipse, destroy and feed on each other is explored."Waves Became The Sky," the opening track on Volume II, recalls "Rows (Of Endless Waves)" from Bell Witch's debut album Longing.

Track three, "From Dominion," opens to the power trio resembling the elements of Aerial Ruin's dark folk temperaments. With a voice one can imagine emerging from some forgotten dimension in ancient Albion, Moggridge pulls thread as much enchantment as song.
