MAYAN mastermind Jansen comments: “'Faceless Spies' is the last track on the album and deals about governments spying on their people, not only for safety reasons but also in order to control them.” About the album’s theme, he adds: “It's about the current state of the world in which a small group of elites have all the power and try to dominate humanity. The tension is rising and the outcome yet unknown.”
