A psychoactive trek through uncanny harmonies, labyrinthine percussion, and oddball rhythms. This just in: Ophiuchi scores Homeric homerun, returns from Hades with souvenirs worth multiple trips.

If a self-released album by a completely obscure act can have such a jaw-dropping sound quality, wtf are all these big bands doing?

The album is quite good for what it is but the production makes it stand out even more.

If anyone ever questions how extreme your taste in music can be, flex on them with this.

Hmm, do you mean this would be a particularly good example of extreme taste in music? Wouldn't be my first choice if I for whatever reason felt like "flexing" in that way. I think it is quite accessible.

Netzach's review didn't move me that much until this post.

Goes in my checklist.

I should have specified, I was referring more to people who don't listen to metal, and more particularly who listen to sort of feel-good/happy-go-lucky stuff.
