I'll happily take whatever they want to give me. :love:

So much so, that I'm not even going to go back and edit that sentence after seeing how gay it sounds. :lol:

Did you listen to the portal tapes? It was really strange and jazz-fusion-like. It was good, but a way different kind of good.

I'm really excited for it though. Traced in Air is a perfect album, as far as I'm concerned.

Ok, I've definitely heard some of these songs, I have the remastered version of Focus. Good shit :thu: definitely way stoked for the album.

Don't get me wrong, I definitely like Re Traced and Carbon Based Anatomy, but I do definitely hope they have some "metalness" on this upcoming album like Traced in Air or Focus

At the moment, I'm thinking it's ok, but I'm not blown away or anything. I think mostly, I just wish PM would either stick with the heavy vocal processing or actually learn to sing. :o

OK, I dig that a lot, but those lyrics are ridiculously bad.

I listened to Carbon Based Anatomy again today. It's different and I like that these guys are actually doing what they want and making progressive music that is...

Let me start by saying that I love Traced in Air....absolutely LOVE it. But the song in that video did not sound good :(

So good.


I don't think Cynic's ever done anything I didn't like.


They're like the Deftones, or Madonna, of Prog. Every record is totally different than the last, but it's unmistakably them.

Pretty much this, I didn't really like Carbon Based Anatomy my first few listens, but its definitely grown on me a lot

Half of this album is awesome. The other half is... not so awesome. The title track is one of the best songs on there for sure!

There's some SICK riffage on this song :rawk: . Still, Traced In Air is by fair their best album though.

They posted a full stream of the album, it seriously kicks ass.
