...bomb exploded fifty miles from my base. At first, we had no idea of what had caused the terrific shock and the awesome drone. We refused to accept the fact that Japan was barely hanging on, and pretending to be unshaken by the bomb, we went about our tasks with as much zeal as before...
...would take them more than two hours to reach the besieged men: RK3 would have to hang on until nightfall. As the shadows lengthened, and the assault grew less intense, the troopers saw the SAS vehicles' lights heading up the Taraka valley and heard the reassuring drone of an AC-130 gunship, with its 105-mm cannon and thermal imaging technology.

Several of the songs on the album display this kind of depressing progression, opening with a good beat and repeating it for four or five minutes without significant change...
