Both halves begin with a short prologue called a proem. The term is Latin and the Greek equivalent was called the "proem" or "prooimion". Proem, whose real name is Richard Bailey, is an American musician. The band released their second EP titled "Proem" on June 9 after streaming it online. Some of the homilies have more than one proem by R. Tanhuma. The song was later used to promote their first debut release via Roadrunner Records, "Proem". Proem has released several albums, EPs, and remixes. In the prologue (or "proem") to "On Nature", he describes two views of existence.
