Track 9, "Dying Culture", contains notably the alarm sound sampled from the 1981 short film by Caro & Jeunet "Le bunker de la dernière rafale" ("The Bunker of the Last Gunshots").

The song "Thorns" (track 10) has no vocals, but contains a modified sample from the 1986 film "Highlander" of The Kurgan (Clancy Brown) telling that character Ramirez (Sean Connery), "Tonight you sleep in hell."
