Description/Reviews: 

Instead of a discontinued blast of instrumental tech-death tapped riffs at ∞ tempo, Vectorscan is more restful, or, rather, less “in-your-face” and more latent, unbeknownst to the one-time listener, or to the unadvised.
With very few “pure metal” aspects, the album gains many points by experimenting with many exotic instruments and music style. Now into avant-garde territory, Amogh Symphony has made a timeless record, one that you will keep listening, even after so many plays, and still find new elements to be enthralled by – while being awed by everything you’ve already assimilated – and fearing what you still have to process.
