Determined to capture the raw, muscular energy of their live performances, the Los Angeles quartet tracked this dense progressive metal effort entirely live in the studio over just four days. The compositions highlight their virtuosic, jazz-influenced polyrhythms seamlessly weaving into crushing, down-tuned sludge riffs. It serves as one of the most dynamic and technically dazzling entries in their expansive catalog.
