ORDER OF ENNEAD REVEAL SONG TITLES AND MEANINGS

ORDER OF ENNEAD, the recently-formed Floridian extreme metal band featuring
DEICIDE drummer STEVE ASHEIM along with SCOTT PATRICK (bass), KEVIN QUIRION
(vocals, guitar) and JOHN LI (guitar), have revealed song titles from their
upcoming debut album. Vocalist and guitarist KEVIN QUIRION describes the
meanings behind the songs:

"Seeking The Prophets"
There are no prophets, just men who claim to be. In this song, we are
searching for "prophets" to have a discussion with and to poke holes in
their claims of guidance from deities. Also mentioned is the suggestion that
we should not wait for something horrific to happen to someone close to
appreciate them.

"Reflection, An Endless Endeavor"
With this piece we are exploring faith and how willing we are to accept it
for the sake of acceptance. Religion is man made and so is the concept of
good and evil. The hypocrisy of religious wars and betrayal is also touched
upon.

"As Long As I Have Myself I Am Not Alone"
If you can't trust yourself then can you truly trust someone else? If you
don't know who you are can you attempt to know another? Become one with who
you are and accept it and you'll never need to rely on others.

"The Culling"
This one is about getting rid of those who bring you down and ridding
yourself of destructive habits. Distancing yourself from negativity and
those that are negative. The abolishment of those who are non-supportive.

"Introspection And The Loss Of Denial"
Here we attempt to identify the negativity and to find balance in life
through acceptance of our shortcomings. Destruction of the ego and embracing
humility.

"Conferring With Demons"
These are not physical demons, but ones of an inner nature. Find the deepest
core of yourself so you can flourish and not be your own worse enemy.

"A Cry To The Perilous Sun"
The sun has been worshiped since there has been man. Here we are crying out
to the sun, a metaphor for our creator(whatever that may be), for answers as
to why we are here and how it has the answers, but refuses to give us an
explanation of life and purpose.

"As If A Rose I Wither"
The exploration of dying and the deterioration of the mind. Looking into a
mirror and not recognizing yourself. How no matter what you accomplish the
only guarantee we have is death.

"Dismantling An Empire"
This is the only track that deals with a topic not of an interior nature.
The overthrow of a dictator. The praise of those who have died to preserve
our freedoms. The ability to look past yourself.

ORDER OF ENNEAD's self-titled debut album is being recorded at Audio Hammer
Studios in Sanford, Florida with the help of MARK LEWIS, and is due to be
released by EARACHE RECORDS in October, followed by widespread touring.
