Following a period of silence, there is a hidden track (0:18) after The Alchemist.

The album is themed around the works of the artist William Blake (1757-1827). The lyrics to Jerusalem are taken directly from the Blake poem And did those feet in ancient time, later adapted into the hymn also called Jerusalem (which is musically unrelated to this song). The cover art is derived from Blake's painting The Ghost ot a Flea, and several more of his paintings appear throughout the album booklet.
