   ||  As Vehemence galvanized through a touring cycle supporting the   ||
   ||  first Metal Blade Records released album, "God Was Created",     ||
   ||  the band took musical ideas that pushed the band dynamic         ||
   ||  further forward and streamlined the songwriting process to       ||
   ||  generate the next collection of songs: "Helping The World To     ||
   ||  See".                                                            ||
   ||                                                                   ||
   ||  The band pushed ahead with steadfast determination to create     ||
   ||  songs that captured the melodic and brutal soundscapes that      ||
   ||  were presented in the previous material, while diversifying the  ||
   ||  lyrics to encapsulate individual topics. Source material for     ||
   ||  the imagery presented in these songs were the headlines of the   ||
   ||  era. Terrorist attacks, infanticide, depression and insanity,    ||
   ||  televangelism, and other atrocities became the real life horror  ||
   ||  presented in the realities that Vehemence was "helping the       ||
   ||  world to see".                                                   ||
   ||                                                                   ||
   ||  Each song highlights the individual strengths of each band       ||
   ||  member, and showcase a group of individuals that truly joined    ||
   ||  together in harmony when performing together.                    ||
   ||                                                                   ||
   ||  The artwork for the album was another highlight, as the band     ||
   ||  were able to enlist the service of Wes Benscoter. His concept    ||
   ||  for the art was pulled directly from the album title and         ||
   ||  presents a bold image to represent the sound contained within.   ||

   ||  Banished to Infinity, originally written in 1995 while Nathan,   ||
   ||  Scott and I were still in high school is the first Vehemence     ||
   ||  song ever written and demo'd. The Death of Me was written        ||
   ||  shortly after in 1996. In 1997 we joined with Mark and Andy to   ||
   ||  complete the Vehemence line-up. Crusade of Hypocrisy was         ||
   ||  written in 1997. We eventually scrapped the song, and used a     ||
   ||  section of it in our song 'Nameless Faces, Scattered Remnants"   ||
   ||  off our album The Thoughts From Which I Hide. Her Beautiful      ||
   ||  Eyes has been around since the demo days but for whatever        ||
   ||  reason, we didn't include it on an album until Helping The       ||
   ||  World To See. - Bjorn / Guitar, Vehemence                        ||
