Trivia

  • Both in the vinyl and CD versions of Heaven Upside Down, in the lyrics of "Saturnalia" he describes at the beginning the phrase "ailanrutas si siht" that around is "This is Saturnalia", although in the song at the beginning strange voices say the last and not what it says in the letters.
  • The fragment: "A stunning possesions of symbolic firearms" was taken from the booklet of the compact disc of the album Eat Me, Drink Me.
