About the song:

"'Parasite' was the second song that we wrote for the full length back in 2011. It's gone through quite a bit of changes during the studio process, but has come out far better than we could have imagined. Lyrically this song is very personal to our vocalist, Alex [Vincelette]. Writing about his brother and how the bad choices he's made have affected his whole family."

-Mike Hnath, Ark of the Covenant drummer
