Zion Memorial Orchestra – 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons Constellation http://cstrecords.com/products/thee-silver-mt-zion-memorial-orchestra-13-blues-for-thirteen-moons/ Band member Efrim Menuck stated that the idea for the 12 short intro tracks initially was suggested because the band wanted the album to start on track 13. The deciding factor for including the tracks, however, was that "if people tried to play it on their iPods, on shuffle mode, it’d blitz their iPod."Dobson Gareth http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/3031905 Features - Rockets fall on rockist fools: Efrim Menuck embraces modernity Drowned in Sound March 13, 2008 November 10, 2023 July 25, 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080725091006/http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/3031905 dead
The liner notes are found in the CD booklet titled es Himnos de Sion—Spanish for "Hymns of Zion". The booklet also contains lyric sheets, presented in the block-capital handwriting familiar with owners of other Silver Mt. Zion records. As such, this is the first album package by the band to contain conventional lyrics. http://www.self-titledmag.com/2008/03/25/qa-with-efrim-menuck-of-a-silver-mt-ziongodspeed-you-black-emperor/ Q&A with Efrim Menuck of A Silver Mt.
