     It is called Cherubim. Worth noting: this album contains the song used in [[flash:5261|Caliborn: Enter]]. It's the last track, called [[Eternity Served Cold]], by [[artist:malcolm-brown|Malcolm Brown]].

+    <b>About Cherubim</b>
+
+    The idea for a dual-sided Cherub album was originally suggested by [[artist:michael-guy-bowman|Bowman]] back in June. Each participating artist would compose BOTH sides of their own idea, and the whole album would be cut in two, like [[album:prospit-and-derse|Prospit & Derse]].
+
+    I thought it would be more feasible to have each pair of tracks be a collaboration instead. Andrew suggested putting the tracks closer together to make the connection between each pair of songs clearer.
+
+    It was my idea to have the track art be mirrored. However, it was actually [[artist:michelle-czajkowski|Michelle Czajkowski’s]] idea to include a chain in her art that encouraged me to continue that motif throughout the rest of it. That also helped the album fall into a narrative more, as it ultimately leads into Caliborn’s unchaining in the final track.
+
+    Calliope’s tracks also become more and more hopeless/restless as the album goes on. Caliborn’s tracks are kind of all over the place but he’s a little shit.
