Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originating from the Brooklyn hardcore scene, Candiria crafted an astoundingly complex, wildly eclectic fusion of genres on their third album[cite: 1]. 'The Process of Self.Development' seamlessly and aggressively transitions between highly technical mathcore, dense jazz fusion interludes, and uniquely rhythmic, urban abstract hip-hop passages[cite: 1].
