Description/Reviews: 

Octopus4 is a stylistic evolution for The Algorithm, taking the act further into progressive and experimental electronics and away from metal, just as the debut full-length album Polymorphic Code left off. The heavy drum and bass grooves and angular arps may mimmick the aggressive attack of technical metal, and Gallego even manages to pick up a guitar during key opportune moments, but Octopus4 is first and foremost an electronic record. Don’t be fooled by the inaccurate “math metal” and “progressive metal” Last.FM tags or the crowd The Algorithm associates with; it’s all a clever ruse to expand the sonic palette of a genre that is nearly defined by a single guitar tone.
