Description/Reviews
In an advancing stage of evolution, the album showcases guest performances from a new lineup of musicians as well as a more dramatic approach to the usual methods of composition, which are primarily guitar and synthesizer driven. The songs heavily employ the usage of ethnic instruments found in Asia along with other ambient/world influences. A more integrated rhythm section is also prominent on the new release, which has a stronger focus on groove and feel.
