You live where only shadows dwell
Darkness is your only friend
It shrouds your face and hides your evil hands
The puzzles of your misplaced youth
Multiplied throughout the years
Leaving you an enigmatic soul
The mysteries that surround you are the mysteries within
Who is there to solve you when you’re riddles in the dark?
You spurned the feast of a loving father
To eat cold flesh of swimming things
And chase your loneliness deeper in a hole

This is the most beautiful symphonic progressive music I have heard since I first heard Yes' Magnification nearly 20 years ago. Robert Reed's orchestrations are magnificent, and are very much on par with Trevor Rabin's film scores as well as Larry Groupe's score for Magnification. I am a french horn player, and his soaring horn parts are some of the best I have ever heard.
For some reason I could not select Part1: Sacrifice as my favorite track. It is indeed my favorite. luckeydoug1
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 12, 2022

This US-American band, which owes its contradictory name to a photomontage created by George Logan, is usually compared to "Rush"... well, no, I don't agree... While there are undoubtedly some typical "Rush" chords and sounds, I think the music has much more in common with 80's neo-prog bands like IQ. And just like the latter, those imaginary Scottish elephants don't lose much time with silly riffs and interludes, but get straight to the point in their songs, with much attention to detail. Sven B.
