Description/Reviews: 

‘E S O’ opens in relative clam before building into a swirling mass of noise, which sounds like some rip in the space/time continuum as just opened and all manner of evil beings are flying through. It isn’t helped by the “vocals”, which swoop and soar at you like abandoned souls of the doomed. This is space rock when things go wrong and you bump into those really nasty aliens, the ones that play with your mind.
‘E X O’ is a more sedated affair for its opening ten minutes and you could be forgiven for thinking that the band are going to stay on a much steadier path this time. Evoking dramatic feelings, its repetitive riff builds as the cymbals crash and the bass rumbles in the background. It’s not long before it all goes awry again though and as the winds of change start to howl through the bass rumble, you can sense the foreboding as the band decide where they will head next. It’s a tremendous feat and one can only imagine how they hash up this stuff in the studio.
