Reception Professional ratings Review scores Despite no central theme in any specific culture, Kinsella upholds that "mysterious ancient civilizations like the Greeks, Vikings, Mayas, Aztecs Egyptians" are a constant source of inspiration. In accordance to the general ancient and mythological subject matter, some of the tracks found on Helios | Erebus feature Latin words and phrases." Furthering in its reference to ancient mythology, the opening track "Agneya" is named after the daughter of the God of Fire in Hindu mythology. The album is named after the Greek mythological God Helios, the personification of the Sun, and Erebus, the embodiment of darkness. He described the album as having “moments of darkness in it.moments of brightness” a “darker record” conceived from an idea of “apocalyptic culture”. Torsten Kinsella said that the Greek words and imagery were not necessarily related to any central theme, rather they were “names that suited the tracks”. The album artwork is based on Aztec art designed by bassist Niels Kinsella.
