New Cynic EP in November 2011!!!!!

[Into Obsidian]

The preview sounded promising, even more abstract then Traced in Air. Although I do see this being a little difficult to sink in (according to the review) Cynic are continuing to evolve.

Paul Masvidal FTW

Max, an awesome guitar player I know, from my favorite local band, Exist, is the new guitarist. I am beyond stoked for him.

the review doesn't give me too much hope that the next album won't be an Aeon Spoke album

No way, that's awesome. Exist is amazing. I wish they had more material out.

 

[Opion]

Wha??? Exist are the shit! This sounds like it could be nothing but a good thing.

what happened to Tymon? someone link me up with some "Exist", you will be rewarded handsomely.

 

[DLG]

both tymon and the bald bassist dude (name excapes me) left. living in california wasn't really working out for them, as I understood it, financially, personally, etc, and decided to leave.

is the bassist from Exist as well?

Not like there was any doubt in my mind, but Sean Malone's still got it.

 

[DLG]

that's what I came in to say

Sean Malone >>>>>

The worst part of the song is that Paul seems to be under the impression that he's a good singer.

bring back the heavy effects on the voice, turn them down in the mix, and the song is way better.

the end of the guitar solo was pretty wack too. (by cynic standards)

 

[Murdstone]

Yeah I think Sean was probably the best part about that track
I don't mind Paul's clean vocals every now and then, but don't just completely nix the effects. They were fun.

 

[ArrowHead]

both tymon and the bald bassist dude (name excapes me) left. living in california wasn't really working out for them, as I understood it, financially, personally, etc, and decided to leave.

I got the impression they didn't leave willingly, moreso they were forced out due to creative differences. (heavy vs. Aeon Spokey)

This sounds great, and hopefully soon Exivious will release the new HEAVY Cynic style material they do so well also! Then we get two great bands to enjoy.

I think the fans just win/win in the whole situation.

This new song sounds awesome. My preorder is worth it, if even just for this new tune.

 

[DLG]

looks like this is a reworked aeon spoke demo song called homosapien

at least the vocals aren't as bad on this one

 

[Cadavuh]

New Cynic EP? Meh.
