- Erik has a tendency to advocate violence and terrorism in interviews, all the while rarely ever dropping his polite tone.
- The song, "Satan's Hunger", and the following instrumental track, "Withershins" are just so damn eerie and sinister.
- Then there's this gem from the title track off of Sworn To The Dark:The all-defying pendulum
Of radiant conviction
So determined in its pace
Pounding now through flesh and bone
Like a hammer through a child - "Stellarvore" is a menacing, claustrophobic 8-minute song about a terrible force awakening to devour the cosmos and destroy all life as we know it.
- The preceding instrumental track, "Dead But Dreaming", (its title, an obvious Shout-Out to The Call of Cthulhu) adds new layers to that sense of claustrophobia.
- The middle of "Holocaust Dawn" is an unsettling cacophony of violins, coupled with some rather cryptic lyrics. Spoken lyrics. May also double as a Tear Jerker.Mind not my burden
Although it is the weight of all the sins
Their harvester awaits at the end of my road
Mind not my disfigurements
Although they are the pains of all flesh
For I run with the wolves at night
And quenchless is their hunger
