2nd album about Verdun, battlefield of the first world war. The battle took place exactly 100 years ago and visiting the fields, the cemeteries and forts where this battle took place reminds of the horror and absurdity of the war. Over 500 000 people were killed during the 10 months of this battle. Nobody really won and the battle was in fact totally useless and unnecessary...
