All other instruments, vocals, lyrics and artwork, and all composition, mixing, and mastering by Calder Hannan

Perceptive listeners will find two sizable quotes of other metal riffs and two of pieces from the western art music canon. These are of course meant as homages to and dialogues with some of the music that has been important to me, not plagiarisms.

There is no one out there right now making music like this. Jute Gyte is on a completely different level compared to the majority of metal, compositionally, lyrically and thematically. Definitely not for everyone, but if you know, you know. Amanda Kauffman
