The EP showcases strong energy and varied styles, but lacks significant impact or cohesion across its tracks.

What we noticed

  • The first track features a driving rhythm with layered guitars that establish a high-energy atmosphere.
  • The cover of '2112 Overture / Temples Of Syrinx' incorporates heavy distortion and dynamic shifts, contrasting with the original's progressive rock style.
  • The EP closes with an acoustic version of 'Waves Again', which shifts the mood to a more introspective tone, differing from the preceding tracks.

Little footprint beyond its audience. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
