* I read a review (sorry, someone else needs to edit this post to properly cite the reference) noting that Gemini are twins, and suggesting that separation (or invisible, maybe inevitable) connections might be a recurring Tomorrow's Harvest theme. (e.g., Last Rites Of Spring/"Twin gods of death at the end of the tunnel" at http://www.brainwashed.com/common/htdocs/discog/loci1.php?site=coil08, Beckett's Ghost Trio at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_Trio_(play), Virgil's Aeneid at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeneid#Themes, & Dante's Divine Comedy at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divine_Comedy#Thematic_concerns)

**Elsewhere, I suggested listening to the tracks in reverse order (see [[Semena Mertvykh]]). But I just read the Tomorrow's Harvest XLR8R review (at http://www.xlr8r.com/features/2013/06/deep-inside-boards-canada-tomorr), so now I'm going to experiment with the kind of book-end sequences suggested there, starting with Gemini.

***[[Gemini]]

***[[Semena Mertvkyh]]
 +
***[[Reach For The Dead]]
 +
***[[Come To Dust]]
 +
***[[White Cyclosa]]
 +
***[[New Seeds]]
 +
***[[Jacquard Causeway]]
 +
***[[Sundown]]
 +
***[[Telepath]]
 +
***[[Nothing Is Real]]
 +
***[[Cold Earth]]
 +
***[[Uritual]]
 +
***[[Transmisiones Ferox]]
 +
***[[Split Your Infinities]]
 +
***[[Sick Times]]
 +
***[[Palace Posy]]
 +
***[[Collapse]]
 +
**And it's remarkable. For example, I never just how similar [[Sundown]] & [[Telepath]] are until I heard them side by side. In this order, the entire sequence ends with [[Collapse]], which leaves me feeling unresolved. And so much for "low" vs. "upbeat" halves.
