In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3
Encyclopedia
Notes: It is debated whether tracks 7-9 are titled "The Camper Velourium" or "The Velourium Camper." The original CD and most websites list the tracks as "Velourium Camper," but the re-released CD case and the official website both say "Camper Velourium." Claudio referred to the ship that the tracks are based on as the Camper Velourium (in a Metal Hammer Magazine interview) and on their Myspace page, the track is abbreviated TCV, so "Camper Velourium" is assumed to be the proper name of the songs. "The Camper Velourium" is also the way the tracks are named on the "Neverender: Children of The Fence Edition
" boxset.
"21:13" is track 23 on the CD, following tracks 12-22, collectively known as "A Lot of Nothing I-XI."
Like its predecessor, "The Second Stage Turbine Blade", the time skip motif found in songs such as "Everything Evil" is present. In "The Ring in Return", the motif is played by the piano as well as string instruments, a change from the piano-only playing of The Second Stage Turbine Blade. It is heard again, at the end of "The Light & the Glass", this time played on a glockenspiel
as well as an extended introduction.
There are also many other "flashbacks" to The Second Stage Turbine Blade and their songs. In "21:13", there is a short segment that starts at the 5:46 mark that uses the same music as "Time Consumer" from the previous album. Also, "21:13" ends with a reprise of the ominous secret track "IRO-Bot" with more electric guitar parts added.

Glockenspiel
A glockenspiel is a percussion instrument composed of a set of tuned keys arranged in the fashion of the keyboard of a piano. In this way, it is similar to the xylophone; however, the xylophone's bars are made of wood, while the glockenspiel's are metal plates or tubes, and making it a metallophone...

Vinyl LP
A 2 disc 12" vinyl LP has been produced for this album. Four sets were made, one printed on two black discs, one on two transparent discs, one on orange and white discs, and another with blue and gray marbled discs. These LP sets are extremely rare, and can be found on ebay occasionally selling for over $150. The track listing on these, like the cd album, omits all of the "A Lot of Nothing" tracks, as well as "21:13", while "21:13" is still contained on the vinyl.Personnel
