Energetic Epic Exp Prog Metal

"This is Devin's masterpiece. It is truly majestic, epic and utterly wonderful - a complex work of art.

This albums is also so unique - it defies categorisation. Although it is unarguably metal, there is no other Prog Metal band that comes close to what he does. Earth Metal, Epic Progressive Metal ... that only begins to describe it.

The most unique thing about Devins albums is how he uses a very large number of tracks during recording, which are layered on top of one another to create a wall of sound. He does this for individual instruments as well as the whole tracks. This results in a incredible level of detail - with a good hifi system, you can hear lots of different instruments "below the surface".

This album doesn't have a story as such, but a topic: Nature - Canada in particular - and spirituality. The song titles and lyrics excerpts give you a good idea of what you can expect."
