Description/Reviews
The album begins with “On a Tuesday” and from the very first note they let the listener know that their promise for a metal album has been fulfilled, with heavy, jarring, irregular chords that hit you in the face. It’s the heaviest they’ve sounded in years, and put a smile on my face from the first seconds of hearing it. ... the first three songs continue in the classic early Pain of Salvation heavy sounds, the rhythms courtesy of bassist Gustaf Hielm, and drummer Léo Margarit bounce and move in what would be to someone unfamiliar with much prog metal in very unsettling and unusual ways.  Unusual time signatures spring up like daisies, but the whole time they are ground solid to the music being played over it. Even with the heavier moments of BE and Scarsick they haven’t done anything similar to these early songs in fourteen years.
