Joel Munguia Reynolds has since returned to the band as their touring bass player.[1]

The album's 10 tracks serve as a guide for the Initiate to reach transcendence. It also completes their trilogy of albums starting with The Martyrdom of a Catastrophist, Reports from the Threshold of Death and ending with Eternal Rituals for the Accretion of Light.
