The lyrics suck hard. I actually ended up liking this a lot, though. Crept up on me. It's not Traced in Air or even Focus, but I enjoy it regardless.

^ I feel the exact same way. The musical performances are extremely tight, the vocals are probably the best on any Cynic record to date, and the songs themselves are pretty strong throughout the record. I rarely ever read lyrics though, so maybe that why this album doesn't bother me.

Overall they aren't awful, but there are some glaringly bad lines. I don't much pay attention to the lyrics either, but sometimes they are unavoidable.

Musically, though, I am satisfied. Moon Heart Sun Head owns hard.

Some real deep zingers like snap crackle pop and animals are things invented by plants to move seeds around

I kinda like the first track despite the POP, POP SNAP CRACKLE AND POP



The rest varies between boring and stupid moments like the one i just mentioned

It's a fucking RICE KRISPIES slogan, like why would any self-respecting musician put a line from a cereal box into their music?

Idk I think it's pretty awful. Was gonna give it a 1.5, but I figured that might be a tad too harsh.

CBA showed so much potential for their new sound too which makes this even more disappointing

I thought CBA was pretty bad too, but this really takes the cake.

CBA was great but this is pretty lax

But Focus and Traced in Air were both about the same lyrically with the new age Hindu based lyrics (just no cereal references).
