Vocalist Otto Salonen comment:
"I forgot Eternal Darkness in a desk drawer so to speak for 15 years. As I was composing for the new album I went through some old songs and this one popped up. The guys wanted instantly to work with it, so I finished the song and the rest is history. The lyrics bypass indirectly the state of the world, but it’s truly a story about darkness."
