2. “Honey”
3. “The Enemy”
4. “The Hornet's Nest”
5. “The Hunter [JPLS Remix]”

The Hunter depicts the excitement of the quest, the anticipation of the search, with a whir of wings, a thrum of blended heartbeats. Hope and passion take flight.

A dark warning, a glimmering of incipient pain, Honey foreshadows a sweet shedding of blood. The song builds to a realization that this will be both glorious and horrific, and, as the song falls, there is a sense of how it will culminate in a frozen wasteland of distrust.

In the thudding of a closed door, the heavy steps of evil, The Enemy reveals that what once was love is now a wound, seeping and pulsing with quicksilver pain. The juxtaposition of major and minor tones suggests the melding of love and hate, flesh and blood.

Haunting themes and lyrics drive The Hornet’s Nest into the region of hopeless remorse, diving into desperate hopelessness. The wings beat and beat and can never stop.

JPLS from Minus offers an entirely different rendition of The Hunter, equally as driven but far more sinister. He transforms The Hunter into a relentlessly pumping challenge, tinted with ominous shadows and prophecies of pain.
