What did Have a Nice Life say about "Emptiness Will Eat the Witch"?
Genius Answer

Tim Macuga: It was one of the earliest we had completed while working on the album. Over time, as the rest of the material took shape, we felt that ending the album on a note of meditative uncertainty might be more appropriate – aesthetically, and narrative-wise – than driving towards complete exhaustion, like Earthmover did.

Dan Barret: Right. Partially, it was about not ending on a blowout, almost a mirror-image of our first record.
