Album Notes & Community Reviews
The New Jersey progressive metal titans leaned heavily into dystopian, science-fiction themes concerning the conflict between humanity and technology. Their eighth studio album is notably darker and thrash-oriented than their earlier work, maintaining their signature symphonic grandeur and dizzying technical virtuosity.
