I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive
An eclectic but incredibly well-integrated blend of traditional death metal, melodeath, black metal, progressive, and even a bit of folk (with the added bonus of audible and tasty bass guitar). The album has a consistent, pulverizing momentum punctuated by the rare acoustic passage or catchy chorus/refrain. Overall an unbelievably mature first offering from an up-and-coming band to watch.

As I marched into the bush to clear wind-fallen trees, I had this album looping giving me gnarly riffs for miles. Super creative, sci-fi adventure fun, and Rise of the Cephalopods just mops the floors with old prog bands' too long songs. densepoplar
