Can Ihlo actually build a Legacy in progressive metal for themselves with this sophomore?

A frankly good tracklist, "Wraith" and "Cenotaph" are just excellent. Frankly surprised by this release, it really makes the modern prog metal scene shine, which has not yet completely managed to prove itself in my heart. I hesitate to give it an 8, but in any case it deserves to be listened to again.

While i did enjoy their previous album more, the new one was quite enjoyable, fun to listen to, as well.

Pretty solid modern prog/djent with Tesseract influence.

A very good release indeed. I personally don't love the vocals, otherwise it would be a 10
