* The title is a pun, with a few possible meanings. Maboroshi is both the name of this band and a word meaning phantom or illusion, thus the title could also mean "The Death of Illusions." (Likewise, the title of the first track could also mean "While Listening to Illusions.") The word shi is written in katakana, not kanji, so there are many possible definitions of it and it would be impossible to know exactly which, except that Maboroshi gave a radio interview in which they explained that it meant death (which also makes sense when you consider the cover and their skeleton hands) and did not mean the death of their band, but rather the death of a musical cycle.
