I guess I've just drifted away from instrumental wankfests (I use the term lovingly), but I found myself mostly bored listening to this. There are some cool moments for sure, but there's nothing that makes me care at all. There's a lot of technicality, but not a lot of musicality.
 
Totally disagree..but everyone is entitled to their opinion..I find there’s a lot of melody in the music
