Hands down my favorite album of the last several years, it's what I have been waiting for since the return of John Arch to doing music.

The first solo EP I loved "Relentless", and was disappointed by the first Arch/Mattheos album.

This album, however, is EVERYTHING I loved about the original Fates Warning, but better.

100% support, wish it had come out years ago!

The album is a fine evolution of where they've gone in the past several years - the band, the production, the fit of everything just meshes in a way that makes everything else work better together and make more sense.

Ivy Silence stretches her distinctive vocals without being strained - I didn't expect this level of depth and evolution at this point after the other albums. Not saying it wasn't right for those songs, but here...she's fluid, surprising, and consistently on point.

I've loved most of what the guys have done for years now - and this album did not disappoint. A sledgehammer of an album, not just in depth of what's going on, but in delivery and atmospherics.

It knows just when to floor it, when to back off, and when to go full-bore weird, and it's a force to be reckoned with.

This entire EP is ridiculously impressive. It's got depth, imagination, and a cohesive voice that keep me coming back to it months later after hearing it on a few radio shows.
