Album Rating: 3.5
Still taking it all in, but on first listen this (not insignificantly) exceeds the quality of their debut as far as a I can remember (a record I am now inclined to give another shot): incredibly tight performances, massive ever-shifting, structurally dense (fairly angular) compositions, really dig. The quieter parts and transient intermezzos might not be perfectly executed. Might have liked it even more if it was less thrashy and more deathy (and even denser/angular/abrasive).

Ayyy the lyrics are finally up, bout to give this a rip reading along. They seem really absurd/fun, band definitely seems to have a sense of humor, the video for Hexagonal Eyes is also a really funny/on point homage to 90s DM, worth watching.
"Analogue silhouettes sag upon burnt emerald landscapes
Comm-chatter mistaken for ghostly beckons
Tethered craft soars in retro-helium propulsion, before liquefaction…"
