VRIL is the sixth official album by SCH. Following a seven-year hiatus, Teno resumed activity in 2002, with a new electronic sound. According to the official SCH discography, "VRIL is a concept album that deals with the occult, space, aliens, secret societies, high politics, VRIL energy and other 'dangerous matters'."[8]

Ognjen Tvrtković, in Ljiljan, describes how SCH's previous "guitar noise" has been replaced by electronic instrumentation and sampling: "Once again we face an exploration of monotony, a minimalist research into rhythmic and melodic forms, tracks infused with a maximally claustrophobic atmosphere, and surreal imagery adopted from science fiction tomes...[t]ake Nazi UFO, [for example] a veritable little electronic symphony during which Hadžimusić develops his minimalist aesthetic of endless repetitiveness of rhythmic and melodic lines to the outer limits, a method he resorts to on a number of tracks here."[9]
