Wow, this is certainly not what I expected. Again, my expectations getting in the way, but I don’t think any fan of Tomahawk can deny that this album practically came out of nowhere in terms of musical anticipation.
For the first few tracks I was hard-pressed to believe that this was actually a Tomahawk album, […]
I needed a good two weeks or so — past the two weeks that I wasn’t even aware this album was out — to fully get a grip on it. However, I knew from the very first track (’The Surge’) that this was different, a lot different, from the previous two Ion Dissonance albums. […]
I really feel like I’ve had this album on my computer and I’ve been waiting to review it for so long. I’ve been listening to it on and off for at least two weeks, but it’s been really hard to get a good grip on exactly what I think of the album.

Now I see why I got so hooked on this album so quick… I’m such a sucker for these spacey guitar sounds. To me, this album really seems reminiscent of Failure (especially Fantastic Planet).
