Megadeth Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 anyone else a fan? their album focus released in 93 was way ahead of its time it was kind of death metal meets jazz fusion, and if that wasnt unique enough the main vocalist used a vocoder its just crazy stuff and imo its amazing check it out, oh and the musicianship on this record is godly its even close to rush if you can believe it
Mustard Death Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 Gave Focus a few listens awhile back. Pretty good stuff, but I was kind of falling away from that genre by then. If you dig them a lot, check out Watchtower, Spastic Ink, Spiral Architect and Blotted Science.
Imaginos Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 The only Cynic album that I own is "Traced In Air", which I like very much. I'm not sure if I will like their earlier stuff - it may be too "metal" for me.

PolarizeMe Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) Wow! I never thought the day Cynic would come up with a new album would never come. This'll definitely be under my most anticipated releases for next year! Edited November 10, 2013 by PolarizeMe
PolarizeMe Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) Edit: Sorry double post! Guess my laptop couldn't contain the excitement for new Cynic album! Edited November 10, 2013 by PolarizeMe
PolarizeMe Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) Sounds like this new album will deviate from their earlier sound. I dig this song. The vocals kinda remind me of Steven Wilson style vocals to my ears. Edited December 12, 2013 by PolarizeMe
HemispheresserehpsimeH Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 Good lord, it sounds so good. 2
HemispheresserehpsimeH Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 This could very well be the album of the year when 2014 is all said and done. It just sounds so good. I'm hoping for a ton of quality releases, but this seems like it'll definitely start the year off very well.
PolarizeMe Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 I am absolutely loving this! Definitely could be an early contender for album of the year.
adace1 Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Yeah, I like it better than The Lion's Roar. The solo is just gorgeous.
