* The Process Church of the Final Judgment — a 1960s–70s occult / post-Scientology group — is the most-cited referent for a title like this, placing the track on the cult / religion thread of ''[[Inferno]]'' (alongside "[[Naraka]]", "[[The Word Becomes Flesh]]", "[[Acts Of Magic]]"). Consistent with the Branch-Davidian and cult readings of ''[[Geogaddi]]''.
