‘Failure’ is pain and anguish set to music, a comment on the futility of the human lot, a suicide note in D minor.

This isn't a song. This is an experience.

An interesting pair of songs for a single seeing as Failure is one of the most gloomy sounding songs off of their prettiest sounding album, and Animus is one of the most uplifting off of possibly their most disturbing album. Both 10/10 songs and highlights off their respective albums, though I do prefer Animus
