I agreed with your take before the show Titan, it seems like kind of an unremarkable set on paper (Backwards Marathon tho(!)) until they get into the great misdirect like holyyy shit they're really playing all these songs back to back to back.



Only song I could've truly done without was The Grid (just do proverbial or voice of trespass). Seemed like a lot of people at the show weren't too into it either.

I'm not so big on The Grid in general. Automata was mixed bag with some good songs overall

"Tundra, there was an imposter impersonating you over the last handful of days or so"

the run from The Future is Behind Us to Sfumato just put a really bad taste in my mouth, with that little run removed the album is so much better off.

I'm an Automata defender and even I don't like The Grid very much

The Future Behind Us and especially Turbulent are great. Sfumato is a one minute interlude that just there, but doesn’t bother me in the slightest. The three track run gives some time to breathe.

Prehistory is the only thing that bothers me flow wise

Thought this was phenomenal from start to finish. Musicianship throughout is fantastic.

The only song I'm not enamored with on this album at the moment is Turbulent. Rest of the album though m/. Hard to even pick a favourite at the moment though Bad Habits particularly hit me hard this last playthrough.
