Trivia

  • An introit is a "piece of music sung or played at the beginning of a worship service".[1] In many Christian denominations an introit is sung to begin the Eucharist, or Holy Communion.[2]
  • In the right of the Catholic mass especially as seen in the 1962 pre-Vatican II Missiles, The Introit specifically refers to the Beginning of The Liturgy Of The Eucharist, this could tie directly into another track here on the LP The Word Becomes Flesh taken from John 1:14. Which becomes central in the Liturgy Of The Eucharist in the Christian denominations (especially Catholicism).

Videos

The split music video for the song was released on May 7th, 2026, through the band's official YouTube channel.
