歌を書く時には、登場人物が生きているのか死んでいるのかを設定するところから始めることが多い。「地獄の歌」では、2002年の暮れに火星の庭でやった忘年会ライヴで格好を付けるために書いた「家」という曲に似通った関係性（というか僕の中で繋がっているイメージ）を再度、掘り起こしている。「家」に登場する夫婦は二人とも死んでおり、亡霊になって間もない妻が、大昔に死んだ夫の帰りを待ちわびている、という状況である。一方、「地獄の歌」は「家」の幽霊夫婦の外伝というか、時間を遡って夫が死んだ直後の状況（妻＝わたしはまだ生きている！）を描写しているように思う。

このトラックは昨年の暮れのsakana、triolaとのイベント「ensemble of rests in sendai」での演奏で、triolaのお二人に参加していただいた。
