    Hm, I remember reading/hearing 'The Fog' as a BITS demo name, but I can't remember the source. :unsure:

    Demo lyric on The Catalyst: "Let them burn inside the fires of a thousand suns"

    Chester said in an interview they got the album name off that line of the song when they were writing the lyrics.

    There's no information pertaining to the interludes? Sorry to be a stickler, I just thought it was something to look into...

    I think the demo title for Blackout is supposed to be "Pac-Manny," not "Pac-Money." The obvious reference being that some of the synth sounds in that track are reminiscent of old videogame soundtracks, such as Pac-Man.
