Description/Reviews: 

Working primarily again in an instrumental format, keyboardist Oscar Fuentes and guitarist Sepand Samzadeh paint a stirring, deeply impactful narrative, using broad musical strokes that connect across prog, ambient and orchestral traditions. The results are, at times, memorably beautiful, at others unbearably sad — like a life lived fully.
