Additional Information
The song described by Jon: "this was basically a call to myself to say, don't fucking take this life for granted. You don't believe in an afterlife. You don't believe in God. This is the one life you have, don't waste a day. Sometimes I get complacent and forget that. This piece of music, it's fucking mental. This is a musical version of when I'm in the moment, and doing all the right things. I'm actually using my brain and I'm not wasting my time on the planet. Then you have the release, with all that crazy melodic shit. I just thought, fuck it I'm alive, not dead - It's now or never. It's just about not wasting our time on the planet. That is all." Rip It Up, Aug-Sep 2010.
