This is the instrumental trio’s second album, released back 2011 and they are one of the best technical progressive metal bands out there. They take rhythms and grooves places that no one even dreams of. This album was the first to have real drums by Navene Koperweis, as the first was all programmed beats. I love all of this record and I play it often.
Sonically, your brain is scrambled from the most delicate pieces, to insane time changes, and the heaviest of grooves that you can’t fail to enjoy. It’s very hard to pick a favourite so I’m going to pick two. Odessa is a heavy groove paradise that makes me smile constantly with joy at how amazing these musicians are at creating something so beautiful in a genre not known for its subtlety. Weightless is the track I will pick because the way everybody is playing a different groove blows my mind.
Great album played by insanely talented musicians.
10/10 from The Grooveman.
