Upon first listen "Embryonic Anomaly" may sound like another sterile technical jam session, but if we dig a little deeper into Rings of Saturn's 8-bit aliencore layers, we find an interesting blend of creativity and technique. Great to see young musicians exploring new territories.

Album is badass and aged well imo. Ignore the naysayers. The band does fall off after two albums though?.. it gets way too clean and sterile. This album actually had a pretty interesting production to it, looking back.

The production of the album is atrocious to the point where my ears begin to hurt shortly into a song. The beyond obnoxious guitar wankery doesn't appease the pain, nor does the terrible deathcore elements thrown in. Absolutely appalling-- this is everything wrong with technical death metal.

Embryonic Anomaly serves as an acceptable debut album from a deathcore band who relies too much on some kind of space gimmick, hence the coined term 'aliencore'. While the production is quite abysmal at times and the lyricism is stupid, Rings of Saturn use their technicality and other advanced items to create a record which goes rather fast.

i'll admit, after a little while i was jamming along to it. still not very good though, technical to a fault and too breakdown-heavy for my taste.
