Recorded in 2005, it consists of 9 tracks, including the two different versions of "The Party Is Over". The album has strong elements of
symphonic metal . The album continues in the musical vein of Lacrimosa's previous albums, in contrast to Tilo Wolff's other musical project,Snakeskin .Lyrics cover Lacrimosa's by-now standard themes of
love , estrangement andloneliness . A notable exception is the last individual track, "Hohelied der Liebe", a song written entirely fororchestra andchoir with no rock elements at all, and with lyrics taken from St Paul'sFirst Epistle to the Corinthians .
