Marius Black and Tad Pagaduan commands the act of staining the stainless and polluting the pure; deliberately pouring morbidity onto heaven. Or maybe that is what some people will see. Because. this idea could also be viewed the other way around; “Blackened white” could be a translation for “whitened black”, an image of cleansing. By mere word-play or subjective vision, the original idea is killed-and gave birth to its opposite; polishing the stained, purifying the polluted and so on and so forth.
The truth ‘is’ that the show, like life, is caught in the center of virtue and sin wherein neither one stands eternally and absolutely dominant.
“Angel of Death, Demon of Life. Stand by the Harmony of Heaven and Hell, and say hello”.
