Inside the album Constant, Death Metal melodies ignite a Martian landscape obliterated, barren and riddled by a familiarity just outside of our sonic/scenic sense. Harmonies are bloodied, frightening and upon sunrise - magnificent. Drums, bravely unsaturated by the default of todays endless blasts explore rhythmic complexity with developed intensity and jazz finesse. Guest soloists imbibe distilling atmospheres with orbiting guitar ambience descending into shredding winds of explosive leads, Jaco Pastoriousesque bass, and gravity crushing vocals. Verily reaching around the glints of Carcass, Death, Steve Gadd and Cannibal Corpse - something half alien has divulged a sound freshly progressive - but neither obnoxious or unmemorable.
