Contradictions Collapse was originally titled (All This Because of) Greed.

The original lyrics to "Erroneous Manipulation" were written by Fredrik Thordendal in high school, however, they were written in poor, broken English, which led him to throw away the lyrics out of embarrassment after they were recorded. The band has since forgotten the lyrics, so nobody knows what is exactly being said. Near every lyric source is just gueswork and not official.

A music video was made for the song "Abnegating Cecity".

Recording information:

Recorded at Tonteknik Recording in UmeƄ, Sweden.
