Since the last one is a phrase, it also doubles as Recycled Lyrics.Arc Words: 'Fire', 'Sword' and ' So far away ' are popular enough to inspire drinking games.Aerith and Bob: A result of being a Multinational Team the overall lineup consists of Herman, Sam, Frédéric/Alicia (current touring bassist), Marc, and Gee (short for Luigi).Frederic Leclecrq - bass, backing vocals (2006-2019).Vadim Pruzhanov - keyboards, keytar, synthesizers, Theremin, backing vocals (2001-2018).Adrian Lambert - bass, backing vocals (2002-2005).Diccon Harper - bass, backing vocals (2000-2002).Steve Scott - bass, backing vocals (1999-2000).Gee Anzalone - drums, backing vocals (2014-present).Marc Hudson - lead vocals (2011-present).Sam Totman - guitars, backing vocals (1999-present).Herman Li - guitars, backing vocals (1999-present).The 2010 remastered edition physical copy contains a bonus DVD that includes interviews with the band members and producer Karl Groom on the making of the album, live footage of Valley of the Damned from their first Japanese tour in 2004, the backstage footage of the same show, two commentaries (one from Herman Li and Vadim Pruzhanov, and one from ZP Theart and Groom), and footage from the recording and mixing sessions for the album in Denmark.
