the topics and subjects are alike to a dream, they tend to be sometimes surreal and sometimes just a bunch of feeling that you cannot or able to express
4.What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Aralus'?
Aralus meaning "Maple Tree" and there is no much inspiration about it, it's just my favourite tree
5.Can you tell us a little bit more about the artwork that is presented on the ep cover?
Yes, the artwork represent something that it's trapped in branches, an ancient house now gone...something that's hard to reach but visible to a distance like a light in a dark room, so this is why the title of the ep it's "There is a blurry light against the twisted branches" cause follows that direction i wanted to represent with the artwork.
