Links to other works
Despite being released in late 2004, the soundtrack has many songs based on songs from the 2006 album Redeemer, which was mostly produced in 2004, for example the name "Futuremachine" was a hint from Robert Stjärnström that it was going to be a future Machinae Supremacy song, which turned out to be Reanimator. The song "Lava Trouble Bubble" was based on the song Rise, and "Machinaeguns" and "Dududub Dududum" were based on the song Empire."Flight of the Toyota" has been remade into a new song for the album Overworld
