          I had the pleasure of seeing these guys a few times in NY and I consider them part of the new wave of metal that's been circulating in the city over the past few years. Their entirely instrumental and only a three piece band featuring AJ Annunziata on bass, Christopher Todd on drums/samples, and John Refano on guitar. Their live sets are awesome and definitely a visual experience for a new comer using a series of images shot through a projector. The lighting also attributes a lot to the live feel which features strobes and a completely transparent drum. This album was a step up from their last release in my opinion and is packed with new dynamic textures, emotions, melodies, and rhythms. Theirs not one track that sounds the same everything has a new feel to it and is constantly evolving including heavy use of samples and loops on top of the rest of the instrumentation. A must see live for anyone in the tri-state area, you can certainly catch them at the Saint Vitus metal bar in Brooklyn.
