They remind of RIVERSIDE at times, while others mention modern PORCUPINE TREE mainly because they contrast those atmospheric sections with the heavy passages quite well.This band is a duo with several guests helping out. "Path Of Dying Truth" has become a favourite track of mine.Love the mood and atmosphere.It reminds me of OPETH's "Damnation" but it's not quite as dark or melancholic.Vocals are laid back and well done.Nice guitar solo before 6 minutes. "Buried Hopes" is mellow early with percussion and guitar but that is blown away rather quickly.It settles again when vocals arrive.Great sound here.Contrasts continue. "Dispersion" opens with drums and guitar before vocals join in.A heavier sound after 1 1/2 minutes as vocals stop.Contrasts continue. "Quietus" features this tribal-like drumming with vocals early.Love the instrumental section 2 minutes in that reminds me of RIVERSIDE.It kicks in before 3 1/2 minutes.Nice.Back to the tribal-like drumming late. "2AM" is an instrumental.Lots of atmosphere to start as it's kind of spacey with a beat.Other sounds join in as it builds some but not a lot. The riffs kick in quickly on "Curse" with vocals right behind.It turns atmospheric then vocals and ripping guitat return. "Moodroom V.2" opens with bass,guitar and drums.This sounds almost "Discipline"-like as in KING CRIMSON.Horns join in and some cello before 2 minutes.Riffs after 3 1/2 minutes.Cello is back late. "Stonegarden" opens with samples and electronics.Keyboards then reserved vocals join in too.It kicks in before 3 1/2 minutes as contrasts continue. "Days Which Should Not Be" opens with abrasive guitar then it settles quickly with vocals and a beat.It gets heavier as contrasts continue.Cello 4 1/2 minutes in. An excellent debut,and i know many out there will go nuts over this.A solid 4 stars.
