So hey, remember how I fangirled about Black Crown Initiate and how they pretty much crossed all the genres I like to see?  These guys do the EXACT SAME THING, and it’s a full length!  They sound like a mixture of Black Crown Initiate, The Ocean, Between The Buried And Me, and Leprous….mmmm.  Metal Injection called them the “masters of every genre”, and after getting about ¾ of the way through this album, they aren’t kidding – SO MANY INFLUENCES.  Wish I'd known about this before making 2012's album of the year list!
