So, I got this from Emusic last night. This is my first experience with this band and so far, I'm scratching my head. In other words, I have no idea how I feel about this. I'll spin this for awhile before coming to any conclusions though.

This is just not my thing at all. It reminds me a great deal of Opeth and I've never been able to get into them either. Plus, I can't stand jazz music and that seems to be a foundational element within Cynic's Traced In Air. Oh well, I gave it shot...(shrugs).

I am not into jazz at all, but when it is thrown in with death metal, gotta love it.

The jazz influence is no mistake, guitarist P. Masvidal moved to California sometime after Focus to study jazz guitar for a number of years. Technically amazing is the new one, but I can see how it can be a bit much for some to wrap their heads around. I highly recommend Traced In Air, but I still like Focus better; more heavy parts, etc.

Did they release this album on vinyl? That'd be cool.

Amazing album, I have never heard of this band before. I just cheked out their 2 releases they kick major butt,

If you goto youtube you can watch a performance in Norway some small festival,

Definitelly progpowerusa material.

Im surprised Glenn hasn't booked this guys for the showcase.
