== Comments ==<br />
* The ending of the track is highly reminiscent of the ending of "[[Collapse]]" from ''[[Tomorrow's Harvest]]''.<br />
* The Title of the track may be a reference to a monster from Greek mythology “the Minotaur”, which is said to have been held in a place known as The Labyrinth and was killed by the hero Theseus, the monster also makes a brief appearance in “Dante’s Inferno” which [[Inferno]] gets its name from, where it is encountered first among the “men of blood” who are punished for their violent behavior.<br />

* From 2:10, interviews with rehabilitated PCP (angel dust) addicts from the 1979 anti-drug documentary "[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20858530/ Angel Death]".<ref>{{#ev:youtube|ByIB5wlJJQY|480||||start=1290|false}}</ref><br />
<blockquote><br />
Uh, quite often, quite often, I found, I found myself being, uh, pretty violent<br><br />
Don't get it out of you, you just wanna fight<br><br />
Just the least thing would really set me off<br><br />
I don't know why, but we got in a fight, we were throwing lamps<br><br />
<br><br />
I got out of the swimming pool and I watched her<br><br />
Even when she was at the bottom<br><br />
I said, "Oh, we're bad, now we're doing something," you know, and I—<br><br />
When I finally did dive in and get her, she was already dead<br><br />
And, um, after that, I just ran off screaming<br><br />
