Behind The Tracks: AOIDOS - From The Surface Grate (Single) (2024)

The song is inspired by the Warhammer 40,000 universe, focusing on the Dark Eldar and their torturous methods of extracting life force from "Monkeigh," a derogatory term derived from "monkey" that they use to refer to humans. The lyrics narrate the story of a human prisoner held in a Dark Eldar dungeon, enduring unspeakable horrors until his death. In his final moments, he is greeted by a powerful, ethereal voice—the Emperor himself—urging the loyal servant to surrender to death and end his suffering: “In a parallel plane of reality, your mind shielded from all insanity. Say your goodbyes, your mind is gone. Let it go, my child.
