You'll never look at a statue of the Virgin Mary the same way again. Based on the assertion that divine apparitions aren’t what they always appear to be, Vesuvius is an interesting take on the psychopath with Catholicism smacked against the background.

Whereas Grave Torture uses darkness impeccably, Vesuvius plays with light so well.
