The bands drummer Dirk Verbeuren has posted the following track-by-track commentary about 'The Living Infinite' (Via Blabbermouth.net). CD 1 of 'The Living Infinite':
01. Entering Aeons
Dirk: "This eerie, crawling instrumental sets the tone for chapter II of 'The Living Infinite'."
02. Long Live The Misanthrope
Dirk: "An up-tempo thrasher with killer riffs, epic solos and a catchy chorus: in short, 100% pure SOILWORK!"
03. Drowning With Silence
Dirk: "Crushing yet melodic, this track perfectly embodies the album's introspective atmosphere."
04. Antidotes In Passing
Dirk: "Melancholy abounds in this atmospheric piece."
05. Leech
Dirk: "At 260 bpm, the fastest song on the album and chock-full of Sylvain's signature riffing."
06. The Living Infinite II
Dirk: "Another catchy, heavy track with a timeless chorus."
08. Rise Above The Sentiment
Dirk: "A soaring chorus atop a roller coaster of heavy riffs."
09. Parasite Blues
Dirk: "Pounding grooves, thunderous guitars and epic melodies: this is blues the SOILWORK way!"
10. Owls Predict, Oracles Stand Guard
Dirk: "A magnificent Sven-penned closer, dark and truly unique, with lyrics by Ola."

Strid: "A fast and thrashy, yet melodic opener bringing you straight to the 'core of existence."
02. Memories Confined
Strid: "An epic song with Sven's signature."
03. This Momentary Bliss
Strid: "Reminding you of 'A Predator's Portrait' days. Super-catchy and groovy chorus."

Strid: "A fast song with a great melancholic feeling."
05. The Living Infinite I
Strid: "A heavy driven mid-tempo song with a timeless melody."
06. Let The First Wave Rise
Strid: "If you mix SOILWORK with POSSESSED, this is what you get."

Strid: "A very heavy and atmospheric song with an elaborate acoustic intro."

Strid: "Insane guitar work with the most intricate chorus on the album."
09. The Windswept Mercy
Strid: "A melancholic but hopeful song featuring Justin Sullivan."
