	The Chronicles is a challenge for both the players and listeners. It features extremely long improvisation-like songs that repeats two or three patterns over and over again. One can think it's quite boring but actually there's so much depth in the layering that these monumental drones can only hypnotise. You set yourself comfortably in the never-ending music, you forgot space and time... this is after the opening, the only "real" song on the album: Anorexic Sacrifice, which is surprisingly catchy and upbeat. The rest of the album is an experience that gives some hints to what Chrome will became after the departure of Helios: rigidity, coldness, repetition. This is the last recordings of Damon Edge and Helios Creed as a duo.
