Like the bat, the Sufi is asleep to 'things of the day' - the familiar struggle for existence which the ordinary man finds all-important - and vigilant while others are asleep.

Probably. When we got together and started throwing around the ideas, I just started bringing out some old riffs I used to play. 'Guarded' and 'Decadence' are pretty much straight-up, aggressive tracks on the album. Those were the first two ideas I had come up with. That set the tone right off the bat of it being a little bit more aggressive at times. Out of 19 songs that we tracked 14 going on the album that's a lot of material. We try to give every song its own identity. We don't want to fall in the rut of being a repetitious-sounding band. We don't want every song to sound like 'Down with the Sickness' or 'Prayer' . It's got to be a creative mood. It's got to be its own thing.

I saw bat speed right from the beginning. After you've got bat speed, my job is to get him into position to use the bat speed. That's what we've worked on, proper positioning, stay down on the ball and not try to pull everything.

Every pinch-hit at-bat is like the first at-bat of spring training every year, like starting over every at-bat and it's a tough, tough job.
