Canto XXXIV
A place there is below, from Beelzebub
As far receding as the tomb extends,
Which not by sight is known, but by the sound…
-Dante

A pale blue light guides us through the endless black winter of cold Cocytus. Even the Malebranche boys won’t follow us here. Desolate glaciers and ice floes crawl through the ages to forge the most woeful place in existence. Here lies the corporeal form of the Nemesis, rimed over and frozen, a mountainous monument of exhausted pride. Steve’s bow-work gives voice to the Nemesis’ unending anguish as Brian revisits an old theme, half-remembered, in augmentation. Jimmy abandons his drums for the final time of the recording and sends huge ice-stalactites crashing down, miles below the cavernous ceiling to the infinite frozen lake of deepest Hell.
We slowly recoil in awe, exhausted, through a chasm in the ice and emerge on the old hidden road back to the bright world of the material plane.

The path to paradise begins in hell.
-Dante
