The third track, The Vampyre of Time and Memory (link opens in Youtube), is a somber synthy piano piece under Josh Homme's confessional vocals.

In a weird synchronicity, the album title should be a great reminder for anyone reading this to pre-order The Castle Automatic! Does Anyone Ever Get this Right?This…
