I basically think that the themes lately resembles some themes that I used to do. "Hendonism" feels like making "Sunshine", "Ancient Civilization" is like "Cityscape", and now the theme of "Demons" that actually feels like "Death" theme. Demons are the fallen angels that tempt human into sin, and pull us away from God. In everyday life, there will be situations that cause negative thoughts such as jealousy, hate, lying and so on. Compare to the 'ghost'/monsters form of demons that movies portray, I think the sin of human is even scarier than that.

Basically, the flow is sorta like being alert of ambush, being uptight of when and where the enemy will be attacking. Abusing the minor chords gives the eerie and dark ambient. Layering strings as different parts, pad, counter melody and attack sort of strengthen the nervous and worrying emotion. Violin is used for lead, it does a great job for the struggling and sorrow bit. I finally have the chance of using tom tom drum pattern. However, I have to admit the transition parts are made too hasty, probably not in the mood at that time.

"Though they built many altars for sin offerings, these have become altars for sinning."
-Hosea 8:11-

No matter what the others say, no matter what people do to us, Lord bless us with a heart that forgive and forget. Instead of holding grudge and blaming each other, let us have the compassion to pray for each other. Most importantly, the faith and courage to stood up and ask for forgiveness and make things clear, Amen.
