The band’s music expands on the already vast array of attributes that come with a progressive metal band. With sounds ranging from cluttered grind riffs paying tasteful respects to Between the Buried and Me, solid heavy riffs to bang your head to, and peacefully structured ambient passages that soothe you just in time for another full-on attack of the senses, this band does it all with precision and originality. Their lyricism and overall vibe from the instruments give their tunes a certain futuristic, other-worldly touch that only heavy-hitters in progressive metal such as Cynic can pull off. This is a major sign of a band that knows their music inside and out, and makes “Astrodrama” seem like a very promising sign of things to come.
The band, who will release the self-titled follow-up to their 2011 debut "Astrodrama" on December 2, have revealed a sampling of what you can expect in the below video clip. The video also reveals the album's radiant and psychedelic cover artwork, designed by Luis Garcia, which the band hand-picked stating,"It represented a portrait of Athena, evolved. We want to put focus on Athena with this album. The artwork's evolved nature hopefully represents the same qualities in our music, as we feel like a new band with this album".
