A straightforward tech death metal beast this is. Loving the production as well.

I'm very impressed with this one, it's very well structured, and has a quality clear sound with a tight production. I'm really liking the guitarwork too, lot's of technicality and melody has gone into it, but importantly it's not overdone. I'm usually not that into technical death metal of this kind, but I must admit this one is very good, I would say they are up there with Obscura as one of the best tech death bands around right now.

Easily the best album in their discography, perhaps only second to tSotA. They took their done-to-death style (which I love anyhow) and introduced several unexpected twists. They've never sounded more fresh in the last decade or so. There's even "Enslavement", a song which experiments with major-esque keys which I don't think they've done before...and it sounded truly epic. Hats off to these guys who keep the creativity flowing even after having reinvented themselves almost halfway through their career.

Beast of an album. A total riff machine.

I was introduced to them with As The Kingdom Drowns which I initially loved but got tired of after a short while. Mostly it was because of the guitar tone which started sounding really whinny.
But this is on a whole other level, though. Loving the tempo and complexity, the drums, and the guitar tone is right on the money.

I like that the vocals are more shouted than growled, suits the music nicely.

Excellent guitar work. Anyone else find the drum mixing a little buried? I have new headphones so it could be that.

Very enjoyable. Kind of surprised I hadn't listened to these guys before considering how long they have been around.
When every riff is as well thought-out as these who needs solos?

It's tough to listen to this album when I could just go listen to First Fragment instead.

This album was my introduction to Psycroptic, and damn I do love them. They guitar work is so groovy for a tech-death album. Somehow it made me feel like the riffing was closer to what one can hear in thrash than tech-death, but keeping all the other elements of tech-death. Superb album from begining to finish.

Absolutely perfect! I'd say it's even a hair better than their last CD! And I don't understand how someone can evaluate such great music with one or two points? Just a complete ignoramus. 😉

Love the whole package, but the riffs especially, Rend Asunder and Ashes Of Our Empire favs.
This was my first album I've heard from them a month after it came out. I will be spinning songs form this one for long time to come.
