    Been listening to these guys for a while, it's a nice juxtaposition of heavy as hell guitars/drums, progressive metal and saxophone. Yes, people kind of hate saxophone in metal, but here it's applied tastefully and adds a lot to the song.

    I highly recommend the rest of the album as well.

      I saw them live, they were all very cool and definitely rocked it. The live sax was stellar.

      Personally, saxophones should be used in every facet of musical production.

    It's great yes (favorite song is Hollow), I posted the "Where Owls Know My Name" music video here I think. One of the guitarist was streaming on twitch the other day (brody_of_nihil), remixing...

    One of the guitarist was streaming on twitch the other day (brody_of_nihil), remixing some of the songs of the album. I don't like the clean compressed production style so I told him to listen to Gris À l'Âme Enflammée, l'Âme Constellée... to get some inspiration, but maybe Vektor was a better reference. Hopefully he listen to twitch chat wisdom and the next album has a more natural sound.
