Alone In Exitland is one of two tracks that was mostly not re-recorded after being written because its complex textures were so tough to emulate and already what I wanted them to be. However, I did add Jacob Herlin's stand-up bass to the song to make it more full during re-recording. The song is mainly about searching for a way out of isolation in a world that is mortal for sure.
