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 que tous les autres" (meaning "I hope that everyone else") can be heard multiple times. The following three syllables are hard to understand.
In the booklet lyrics of "Weeping Willow", all the text is in lower case except for a bunch of letters. The content (if any) of this cryptographic message is still unknown.
