Additional info
Light produces the experience of an audible trip around the circle of fifths. All twelve major keys are demonstrated throughout one rotation of the 64-minute movement. (We recommend the use of headphones and the repeat function.) These lyrics are crystallizations of the sequential phases found within the process of personal/planetary evolution. Over a two year period, each piece was transmitted through both natural and "unnatural" mediums. We present this album as a gift to anyone capable of hearing it, in hopes of encouraging self awareness and the fulfillment of one's utmost potential. Share with each other.

What are the vocals like? Clean or harsh?

Clean, clean for post-metal Anything before this (especially on "Sins") the vocals are harsher ala Isis. You can preview any song on any album on their bandcamp page!

It was good, but not THAT good. Would probably give it a strong 7 to a very light 8 if I'm generous. Didn't really dig the vocals.

I disagree Doc. I think this album brings something special and fresh to the already-diluted post metal scene. The songs flow one to another with such ease and grace that even after the 65+ minute journey I am left wanting more!

Give it another try Doc, please.

I don't remember saying it wasn't original and fresh... Just saying I didn't like it that much. DIFFERENCE.
I'll give it some other tries though.

I'm sorry Jay, but I must not be hearing what you're hearing. Maybe I don't know enough about post-metal, maybe there's something they're doing that others don't. I don't know. I just didn't connect at all with it. There's still ten minutes left to listen to, but I can already tell I won't go back to it. I have to say I am not interested in the whole "discover your true potential" theme, either. The music itself isn't bad at all, but there's nothing to keep me hooked.

You said no hard feelings if I didn't like it as much as you do, I hope you meant that .

No problem young lady. This is really a tough listen, especially to those with not a lot of post metal on their resume. Nice to see you gave it a try.

Lemme dig in my post metal vault and get you another rec...
