[edit] Notes

The titles of the three tracks "Omnio? - Pre", "Omnio? - Bardo", and "Omnio? - Post" are related. Pre is a prefix used to say "before", Bardo is a Tibetan word for "intermediate state", and Post is a prefix meaning "after".

At around 6:00 of "Omnio? - Pre", female voices can be heard singing in French. The lyrics of this portion of the song are not listed in the album, however the word "j'espère" (meaning "I hope") can be heard multiple times.

299,796 km/s is 3.542 km/s faster than the speed of light.
