Album Notes & Community Reviews
A devastatingly brief, hyper-technical explosion of instrumental dissonance from the St. Louis underground. The trio navigates an exhausting maze of jarring tempo changes, abrasive guitar noise, and incredibly complex, stop-start drum patterns. The sheer density and unrelenting aggression of the musicianship make it a formidable cornerstone of the early 2000s brutal prog movement.
