Matt “This Is Another Favorite Of Mine. Misha Wrote The Main Riffs For This And Again Like Some Others It Was Sitting Around A While. As I Was Learning And Digesting The Demos I Was Also In The Process Of Rereading The Shining By Stephen King And I Felt As Though The Themes And Vibe Of The Book Helped To Create A Backdrop For The Story Of The Song. “As We Were Writing The Other Songs For Juggernaut And Putting Together The Concept This Track Communicated A Very Specific And Important Vibe That Fit The Story Very Nicely. I Should Stress That The Story Isn’t About The Shining But It’s A Feeling It Paints A Nice Picture And Creates Cool Images In Your Head. “I Remember Going To The Studio To Hear What Spencer Had Done With His Vocals And I Was Blown Away By His Energy And Power. It’s A Very Commercial Song On First Listen But For Me It’s Just A Real Vibe Driver.”
