Tracks: 1- Networked Vibrations, 2- Mindware lost, 3- The First Moment, 4- Delusion of Madness, 5- Sleeping With Worms, 6- At Dewy Prime


Cover Art by Oddleif Stensland

Recorded at RVPM Studios


Here we have this norwegian progressive metal band whose main goal is creating compositions with great instrumental quality and many arrangements that always surprise the listener with their melodies and multiple changes. And the musicians here (a trio plus one guest musician on keyboards) have amazing technical skills that are necessary for playing this compositions (check the odd timing that the drummer uses in some places). One thing that I found strange are that the vocals are completely different from the ones that can be heard in bands of the same style. This vocals are rawer and add heaviness to the songs...and that is one important point here....the songs are heavy and have a raw sound while having many rhythm changes and arrangements. It is like heavier progressive metal. A must for lovers of complex compositions and great musicianship.

Favorite tracks: "Mindware Lost", "The First Moment" and "Sleeping With Worms"
