A largely instrumental metal album, filled with powerful, catchy and atmospheric riffs that bring about the concept of The Grand Contraction. A very guitar based album that should please all metal fans regardless of genre, The Foetal Mind's new album shows a massive change from their DSBM beginnings. The guitar work is highly melodic, catchy, and much more prolific in its approach than before.
