Two listens so far. I’m definitely loving it and I think it’s hitting that great balance between progressive metal technicality and the catchy grooviness of thrash. There’s lots of great memorable riffs and sections, and I really love how there’s a consistent beat ticking throughout the more complicated time signatures (reminds me of the cross-tempos of the Timeland albums). Drumming is incredible too. Definitely a great first few impressions, I’m curious how well it’ll hold up over time.

Really good point about balance! I love all the complicated time signatures, but yeah, the polyrhythms keep it rolling.
