Artifakt — Plastic
'"I want to say one word to you. Just one word. Are you listening? Plastics."
"There's a great future in plastics"'
Artifakt — 6
'Six is the sign of the Devil'
'For everything holy, there is something unholy. It is the essence of temptation.'
From 'The Omen'
The Omen
Artifakt — Eye
"if only you could see what I've seen with your eyes"
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. "

Explanation of track names / symbols: 01 - Inverted Ankh (that's what it is - the Egyptian symbol for man which got corrupted into the crucifix - but upside down). 02 - Plastic 03 - I think Sex would be more accurate, but everyone else is using Male so why not? 04 - Ohm 05 - 5 (these three are obviously from numerology, although actually all the tracks are releated to their numbers somehow) 06 - 6 07 - 7 08 - SPQR (by the order of the senate and people of Rome - used to sign edicts and sentences) 09 - Fish (early christian symbol for Jesus) 10 - Malcuth - the root of the tree of life in the caballah - that whole track is based on caballistic bits, as is a lot of the album 11 - Isis - that's a chair / throne, and its the hieroglyph for the goddess Isis 12 - Nothing - the track has no name, and appears as a gap in the list of symbols 13 - Eye
