The technicality woven into every track is dizzying, especially considering the guitars and drums. Songwriting and arrangements are quite impressive, with intricacies allowing for some very dense structures to be built and unraveled without sounding unruly
A strength with this band album is the balance they strike between melodic guitar components and ones that are strictly dissonant. When those two ends converge, particularly highlighted alongside a drop / break in the track, the tone is sour Lorenzo
Californian quartet defining themselves as Sci-Fi black metal, maybe due to cosmic and interstellar topics, sounding like blackened death metal too ("The Maw"). It's a well-balanced melodic black metal album, with some fast-paced tracks and nice rhythmic transitions reminding me of Swiss band Celtic Frost (e.g. Terminal Odyssey). In other words not overly dominated by drum speed and also not sounding as extreme or as raw as some BM can be. sachavonkarl74
