    Music like this makes you realize jazz fusion is coming back in a huge, very forward-thinking way.

    This is what I'm searching for.
    Anyway, sometimes it's hard to get someone or friends who understand what we listen to. For them, song with good melodies are important. As for me, I'm open to any songs whether it has groove, melodic or tehcnical. Technical progressive songs are always be my cup of tea
    This band is technical, lotsa attacks and the odd time signatures. How i love this band so much. Looking forward to this band if they release an album i would definitely buy it.

    Great song arrangement, great musicianship skills. This reminds me of Progressive stuffs such as Tigran Hamasyan and a lil bit of Djent like Tosin Abasi. I like the chords that ya guys playing, it brings out the dark progressive energy and to play it, y'all need to focus and have that djent kind of feel in it. Lol, it is just a sincere opinion from me. Keep up the PROGRESSIVE thingy guys. Im a BIG FANS of y'all. Im looking forward, waiting for y'all to come up with new songs.
