Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed.

Two impressive vocalists, variable and skilled guitarists and a tight and very powerful rhythm section. That plus the ability to write a song really leaves nothing left to desire here.

I stayed away from this EP for awhile, because at the time of the release it seemed like every "djent" band was copying the Egyptian/oriental sound. Overall, I'm glad I revisited this album, technical aspect of the music mixed with the quality of sound and the br00tal vocals makes this record really spectacular!!!
