It's the most linear song they've made to date. Interpret this as you will. Sounds great but I hope the entire album isn't as straight forward.

Doesn't sound very different from Tellurian except a stronger focus on electronics. Hope they've got some surprises in store as well. Not bad but not mind-blowing either.

Some good riffs, typical Soen. Still optimistic even though the song isn't the best thing ever.

That first riff...they've been listening to too much Opeth  Edit: actually the whole song is pretty heavily influenced by Opeth. Were they like that before?

Written by MetalManic on 17.12.2016 at 03:42 Yep, that's why I check out the band in the first place a few years back  I just don't really remember how Opeth-y they sounded.

Written by LeKiwi on 17.12.2016 at 05:53 Did you listen to their last album? I recommend it, it's really good. Also, they always had a bit of an Opeth+Tool thing, more on the Tool side.

Written by BloodTears on 17.12.2016 at 12:13 Yeah, I've heard both of their albums. I only remember the debut which sounded very Toolish, but I remember preferring it over Tool. Will definitely have to check out the follow-up, thanks for the reminder
