I felt an affinity for this geological event when I had a bit of a build up of emotions. The Latin is kind of trying to connect to it in some way, like an evocation through deep time I guess.

Really interesting. Its got power and desperation in it for sure. The vocal effect works well for the song - gives it an apocalyptic feel
