“With roots stretching to the early-1990s Florida death-metal scene, Cynic have since pushed metal into the background. Favoring straightforward verse-chorus structures, anthemic motifs, and textural beauty, this 23-minute suite, ditches death-metal-styled vocals outright.”
“On its latest EP, progressive rock band Cynic moves its sound in a direction I hope shows up on the group's next full-length.”
