Some of the sounds of this album are notable in that they were created by sampling recordings that included frequencies outside of the range of human hearing (above 20 kHz), and then transposed down into the audible range. In order to make this possible, the entire album was produced at a 96 kHz sampling rate (contrasted with the typical 44.1 kHz rate).[8] Despite wide-based praise for the sound design of the album,[9] other reviewers commented that this came at this expense of the album's emotional impact.[10]
