Album Notes & Community Reviews
Moving even further away from the technical death metal origins of their legendary 'Focus' debut, Paul Masvidal and Sean Reinert steered their project into deeply ethereal progressive rock. The EP relies heavily on ambient interludes, vocoder-drenched melodies, and complex rhythm structures, highlighting a spiritual, almost meditative approach to heavy music.
