The focal point of this album is the epic title piece, portraying the tragic journey of Tony Piece's descent into increasingly dangerous drugs into overdose with different styles of music: renaissance, classic metal, funk-rock, speed metal, nu-metal, prog-metal, progressive rock, and harp solo. "Pay the Price" is a driving, aggressive hard rocker, whereas "Rock Hard" is an anthemic classic rocker. "Under the Ground" is a dirge featuring the heaviest distorted organ sound and a touch of death metal vocals in the chorus, followed by the catchy "90's Child". "Mare Crastinum" is an art-metal song with a quiet intro under poetic lyrics leading to a heavy metal tsunami, featuring an intricate classical-sounding instrumental section. While still showing SH's old-school metal and prog roots, the whole album has a new heaviness due to Joe's full organ sound and Matt's drop-tuned guitars. Dan's melodic bass and Frank's excellent, inventive drumming give the album plenty of drive and interest.
