*" “Signs of Life” is “Opening my eyes” " - [[Marko Saaresto|Marko]], STALKER, 2013<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20231003171034/http://www.stalker.cd/index.php?lang=2&content=81&id=425 archived from STALKER]</ref>

==Trivia==
*The album's copyright statement ends with "and don't forget to brush your teeth..."
*On the Facebook page of the band in a comment it is clearly stated that the title Signs of Life is not a reference to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signs_of_Life_(instrumental) Pink Floyd-instrumental] of the same name released in 1987, it is "merely a coincidence".<ref>http://rewindpoets.wordpress.com/2012/02/18/more-tracks-and-stuff/</ref>
