I've spent ages adoring devins production and music, and although he's an influence i wanted to try and make something different,

So i thought i'd fuse meshuggah style grooves with big orchestral sections and tasty drumming, i live with 2 awesome musicians who helped me achieve this. Its cool we all have something to focus on now :)

i hope you guys like it, bear in mind i have yet to record vocals!

hey I really dig this... cool stuff. Very impressive that you did that in a home studio. Just wondering, what mics + gear did you use to get such a great guitar and drum sound?

Man...epic! I like this a lot. I'm really digging all the bands that are adding atmospheric elements to the "Meshuggah-esque" guitar work. Sounds great, keep it up! :)

Holy crap! :D

This sounds really amazing. Great production value, big sounding and tight guitars. I'm really impressed. Hope you have luck finding a vocalist, because I can't wait for the record / live-shows.

just listened to the 1st song
sounds really great man, congrats :D
I'm a total and complete sucker for any idea related to meshuggah+soundtrack-esque shit (which is kind of a direction that i aim myself with my music)
Great production too! What sample packs did you guys use?

awesome shit, dude! think i'll add you. the whole production and composition is stunning, but i think i like the drums most. keep us informed, will ya?

i'm still amazed about the quality music that appears here. we'll need a new HDAS sampler that allows classical rock/metal instruments sometime soon.
