“Shaded Mirror,” kicks off proceedings with an interesting one-two arrangement. It has a fascinating riff and solo that really allows the listener to get into the swing of things, and then the vocals come in and the listener is taken to a higher plain.

“Termination Shock,” saunters into being. Delivering a crash course in insanity, and ensuring the listener is truly hooked.

“Foreverman,” snaps and crackles with energy and brutality. A song that is sure to get listeners going when performed live. And a song that contains a fabulous melodical vocal line.

“Diary of A Maiden,” is an assault on the senses. A song that dips and turns, producing some truly fascinating shifts and changes that allows the listener to truly appreciate just how versatile the band is.

“STK,” starts off slowly before unleashing the hounds of hell and turning everything into a shifting sonisphere of sound.

“After The Future,” starts off reflectively, and then amps everything up into a maddening swarm that takes control and shifts the gears completely.

“Deepspace,” is a rager, a song that traverses time and space to produce the goods.

“Terra Exodus,” runs like a madman from the start, it shifts and twists, contorting into an impressive image of heaviness before shattering the illusion with a perfectly crafted onslaught.

The album is out on 24th April via Gates of Hell Records.
