Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Hate Eternal's Erik Rutan, the debut full-length from the Pennsylvanian quintet established them as formidable new voices in modern technical metal. The album balances incredibly fast, hyper-precise death metal riffing with expansive, atmospheric progressive passages, conceptually focusing on the cycle of seasonal change.
