BETWEEN FORCE AND FATE (VIRGIN RECORDS, 2005)
War is Peace opens the album and perfectly sets the tone for what you’re about to hear over the next 38 minutes.
That is, if you’re listening to the Between Force and Fate at once — the way we used to listen to our music, you know? So, I also gotta say that this album is far heavier and less polished sound-wise than Velcra’s debut — so no wonder I find it more appealing of the two. Only thing that slightly bothers me is that I never got to see Velcra perform these songs live.
The sketch related to this song was drawn in 2025 — only twenty years after its release. Since this album is so good, I drew a few more sketches from the song titles on it. Which will be published here later.
