about

"In The Footsteps Of Dead Soldiers!" features Twinn Chiron on the first verse, Charles Ramsey on the hook and second verse, Myca Townes on the hook harmonies and the ending interpretive-sung section, and Twinn Zeus on the third verse.

This one was a fun one. I spent over ten minutes working on that string part that ended up happening only once at the beginning of the song, then at the last minute (four of them or so) decided that I didn't want that to be what people rapped over so I threw what would become the rest of the instrumental together at breakneck speed. It's very simple and repetitive, which usually I hate, but for some reason it worked very well on this track. The track also originally featured an extended alto saxophone solo at the end via Alexander J. Smith III, but we decided to cut it because the song ended up dragging on a bit (it was over seven minutes long). AJ - please don't be offended that we cut the take.
