My favourite Gorod record so far - although I think I rated the debut higher? The first track is very much in the prior LP's fashion i.e. awful, with no intro whatsoever. But 2 and 3 are really really cool, offering acoustic takes on tech death that not only reveal how good gorod could be if they use their musicianship to better ends, but also sounds surprisingly fun and flamencoey idk especially 2, while 3 evokes its prog/tech death roots more but is still super cool. The transition back into normal Gorod sound with 4 is rough, but after a few min the rather long (15min) track reveals itself as one of the most consistent stretches of music Gorod had ever offered at this point in their careers. The awful EP structure with two randomly acoustic tracks in hte middle hurts the rating for this, but as far as songs go this is the one I am most likely to listen to again. 3.5

Love the acoustic takes on Gorod classics, the first one a latino sounding classical version of Blackout, and the second a
cool slower acoustic rearrag?ent of Earth Pus. Then the new track is monstrous, though i'm unsure how such a drastic
change of style from pure tech-death to proggier would work for a full-length. Curious to see whether they keep it up for
future LPs, and if so, how it sounds.

The title track alone makes this extended play worth getting.

Superb album that continues Gorod's legacy. The acoustic versions completely re imagine the old songs. Transcendence is one of the most epic songs ive heard this year.
