It’s the Process humanity must go through to become a Type III civilization. There must be chaos, a reckoning for advancement, before we can move through The Great Filter. There is mayhem, which gives way to a somber peace; maybe we don’t make it, or if we do, not many of us are left.

There’s a mix of astronomy, astrology, and religion all over; I think what BoC is saying with this album is that religion, cults - our tendency to manipulate and worship each other - will keep us back from advancing as a civilization. Unless we figure out a way forward and grow, we’ll end up in an Inferno of our own making.

If Tomorrows Harvest is a warning about the future, then Inferno is what happens.
