Cedric's best vocal performance both singing and lyrically. He built a brand off of being
cryptic and completely unhinged, which makes it all the more poetic and powerful that all he
really needed to do was dig deep internally. Omar's guitar is missing through the first half
save a geet solo here or there, but he ends up dominating the lion's share of powerful
moments after Vigil, the album's centerpiece. His melody at the end of Cerulea is one of the
saddest guitar lines I've ever heard emotionally, especially given the lyrical context of the
song. The album belongs mostly to Cedric and Marcel, who takes the shred Omar gave during
the early output and applies it to his keys. He pulls out insane jazz runs, groovy soul
chords and some downright crazy noise on a few tracks. Better than Octahedron, Bedlam In
Goliath and Noctourniquet.
There's two tracks on here that have the classic Volta spirit, too. |

If you enjoyed 'Exoplanet' and 'Intrinsic' from The Contortionist, you are 99.95% guaranteed to
enjoy the way this album plays out. It obviously doesn't have the production polish that those
albums have, but it definitely gives this album character for where the songs go. The transitions
on these songs are truly nuts, and Carpenter's vocal work is a treasure. |

Coheed & Cambria esque alt-rock passages intertwined with odd Oceansize (and by extension, some Cardiacs spirited) structures/melodies are fused with a vocalist that is the chimera of Greg Puciato and Phil Collins doing the nasty fusion dance. Refreshingly *good*. |
