Music<\/strong>.<\/p>\nSpeaking about the track, Townsend<\/strong> says, \u201cthis is a track that essentially acts as a \u2018soundtrack for an unmade movie\u2019 \u2026if you think of it as a \u2018song\u2019 it\u2019s not really going to work, but if you think of it as a cinematic \u2018experience\u2019 that is representative of the final moments before a \u2018fundamental change\u2019, it\u2019s a cool adventure.<\/em><\/p>\nEither viewed from the lens of the \u2018war\u2019 being that of two warring factions whose actions have culminated in a \u2018final battle\u2019, or the same thing being essentially a metaphor for an internal struggle, it works in the same light. The battle itself can be representative of a decision, loss, change, or whatever. But sitting with the difficulty of life and our natures can often be violent work, so \u2018the fastest way out is through\u2019 and this piece of music represents that process. The ending is meant to be a representation of a sort of personal awakening.<\/em><\/p>\nThe name The Big Snit<\/strong>\u00a0was taken from a short cartoon from the Canadian national film board by the same name I grew up with. If you get a chance, look it up on YouTube \u2026 I guess my version here is simply a kind of heavy metal version of that :)\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nWatch the official music video for Prepare For War \/ The Big Snit here:<\/strong><\/p>\n
